President Elect: Jennifer Finnegan
Jennifer has three Haycock Cougars, daughters in 5th and 3rd grade as well as a son in Kindergarten. This is her first year on the executive committee, but she has coordinated the Sprout School Supply boxes for the past three years, run the Staff Appreciation Weeks for a year, and been a room parent for too many classrooms to count. Prior to becoming an over-committed parent volunteer, Jennifer was a federal lobbyist in the healthcare space. When she isn't playing chauffeur to three kids or hearing about her husband's latest round of golf, Jennifer enjoys traveling and dreaming up plans for her next trip. She also has mild obsession with crossword puzzles.
