PTO Board

Suzanne Morrell here! Thank you for welcoming me as your new LTH/TGE PTO President! I have been involved in parent/teacher organizations for the past 5 years, but this is my second year at LTH/TGE. I am a CT Technologist by day, a substitute teacher in my “spare time,” and Mom to a fifth grader here at TGE. We are a big soccer family (go SD Wave!), we have 4 border collies, a kitty, a couple of horses and ducks. Our favorite AZ adventures are floating the Salt and hiking around the White Tanks.

I can’t wait to roll out some new events and ideas alongside our big move to a new school!

Hello and welcome! I'm Nadine Sellers—proud mom of three amazing boys and a continuing PTO Board member from the LTHMS PTO. I work full-time at Estrella Mountain Community College and first joined the PTO two years ago when my oldest son started 6th grade at L. Thomas Heck. Now that he's in 8th grade and part of the final graduating class at LTH, I’m excited to help guide the transition from LTH PTO to the new TGE PTO as we prepare for the move to the new campus next year. I’m looking forward to helping build a strong, vibrant PTO community at TGE—and I can’t wait to partner with the teachers and meet all the wonderful kiddos this year! 

Hello! I'm Courtney Smith, 2nd grade teacher at TGE and the teacher liaison for our wonderful PTO. I have three children that attend TGE; Kiera-6th grade, Owen-4th grade, and Noah-2nd grade.  My husband also teaches at TGE - Mr. Smith is the 6th grade match and science teacher.

This is my first yeat at TGE but I've been on PTO boards for the last three years.  I'm excited to be part of the start of the TGE PTO and can't wait to have a great year.
