Our PUFE Board kicked off the new school year with a retreat focused on one big goal: raising even more support for Phoenix Union student scholarships and teacher mini-grants!
We’re so grateful for this dedicated group of individuals who show up to plan, strategize, and champion our students and educators. Also, a big thank you to PXU Superintendent Thea Andrade and PXU CFO Adrian De Alba for taking the time to join us to make an even bigger impact!
Meet the dedicated team behind our mission: President Lauren Arndt, the board — Vice President Leticia Avalos, Secretary Jesus Vera, board members Andy Fillion, Stacey Flores, Jeanine Aguilar, Christopher Davis and outgoing board member José Patiño, alongside Executive Director Laura Taylor.
