About Us
We are the PTA for Carroll Elementary School in Elk Grove — a volunteer team that turns parent energy into events, classroom support, and a stronger school community.
Carroll Elementary PTA is a partnership among parents, caregivers, teachers, and staff. We exist to enrich student life at Carroll: family festivals, fundraisers like the Fun Run and shred events, teacher appreciation, and the everyday extras that help classrooms thrive.
We are a local unit of California State PTA and National PTA. That means your membership supports Comets here at school and adds to a statewide and national voice for children. Meetings are open, decisions are made together, and there is a place for every kind of involvement — from joining for $10 to serving on the board.
Carroll is a year-round campus serving Transitional Kindergarten through 6th grade. Whatever track your student is on, you are part of this community.
The board is a small group of parents who plan the year, keep the books, and partner with school leadership. You do not need PTA experience. You need curiosity, follow-through, and a little time each month.

President
I will have a 4th grader and Kindergartner this year! This is my 4th year on the PTA Board at Carroll. Being a part of the magic at Carroll keeps me coming back. I truly believe these kids will brighten our future and I feel excited to be a part of the community.
Vice President
I have been a part of the Carroll Community since 2008. I started as a Teacher's Aide at Champions and now I am the Secretary at Carroll. I have been an active PTA member for 11 years and have served on the PTA board for 6+ years. I am looking forward to bringing some new events to the PTA this year and to continuing to support the school, staff, and families.
Vice President
I was a Special Education teacher with Lodi Unified for seven years, where I worked with high school students with emotional disabilities. More recently, I've been a full-time mom to my three kids—two at Carroll and one at TJM. Over the past year, I've had the opportunity to support Carroll in a variety of roles, and I'm excited to be part of our PTA and help make a positive impact for our school community!
Vice President
The vice president supports the president, helps run events, and steps in when a second set of hands is needed. No prior PTA experience required.
Secretary
I’m a proud parent with one child at here at Carroll and another in the district. This is my 3rd year serving on the PTA board. I bring strong organization, positive energy, and a collaborative spirit to support communication and help strengthen the connection between families and staff. I look forward to working together to make this a fun, inclusive, and impactful.
Parlimentarian
I grew up in southern California and moved to Davis, where I met my wife. We moved to Elk Grove afterwards and now spend our time shuttling our fourth grader to birthday parties and extracurriculars.
Treasurer
Dallas is a computer programmer and serving his second year as Treasurer for the Carroll PTA. He graduated from UC Santa Barbara and enjoys using his technical skills to support the PTA and the school. Dallas has a third grader at Carroll and a sophomore at Franklin High School. Outside of work, he enjoys traveling with his family and playing golf occasionally.
