 RIOJAS PTO BOARD
​2022-2023

Picture
Deborah Camero
President

This is my second year on the Riojas PTO. As the VP of Programs last year, I was able to help organize events like Pastries with Parents and Teacher Appreciation Week. My daughter is in first grade in the Spanish Dual Language Program. We’ve loved our time at Riojas, and I can’t wait to see what our PTO can accomplish this year. ​

Monica Traylor
​Vice President of Volunteering

I'm excited to be joining the board as your VP of Volunteering for this coming school year! My family has lived in the Avalon Community for the past 5 years. My husband and I have three wonderful children, two daughters at Riojas,1 in kindergarten and the other in 2nd grade. Our son will be at Cele Middle School in 8th grade. This is my 2nd year serving in the Riojas PTO, last year I served as the Fun Run chair and have volunteered in numerous PTO events in the past 2 years. I enjoy making lasting memories for the kids and making sure the teachers and staff are appreciated throughout the school year! I can't wait to work alongside the lovely Riojas PTO team again this year! I'm looking forward to another great year with the amazing teachers, staff and volunteers at our wonderful school!

Lilliana Garcia
​Vice President of Communications

​I am very excited to be returning as your Vice President of Communications for this school year. I have served in the past on the board in the role of Hospitality, VP of Volunteering, and have been a volunteer with the PTO for various events such as Spring Carnival, Holiday Marketplace, dances, movie nights, and many other fun events. I currently have two children at Riojas Elementary in the Spanish Immersion Program and have a RES graduate. When I am not helping build fun elementary school memories for the students and teachers of Riojas Elementary, I am creating magical memories for families as a Travel Professional specializing in Disney destinations. I look forward to getting to know each and every one of you through all of your volunteer efforts.

Amanda Dean
Vice President of Fundraising

This is my first full year involved with the Riojas Elementary PTO and I’m excited to hit the ground running as the Vice President of Fundraising.  My husband, Marshall, and I have lived in Avalon since June 2020 and specifically moved here to send our children to Riojas after hearing such great things from friends in the neighborhood.  My daughter Lucy is in first grade and my daughter Abigail will join her  in Kindergarten next year.  We are also expecting a son at the beginning of 2022.  My expectation was to always be involved in my children’s education as much as I could - while I’m not a teacher myself, I have educators in my family and have the utmost respect for what they accomplish with our children!  I am proud to serve the Riojas PTO for this year and hope to be a part of it for a very long time!

Monica Partida
​Secretary

​I am thrilled to be your PTO Secretary for another year.  My husband, Budro, and I have made Avalon our home for the past several years with our two children, Penelope, a fifth grader and Miles, a third grader, both in the Spanish Immersion Program. This is my sixth year in the Riojas PTO board. I have served as a Vice President, Vice President of Programs, Spring Carnival Raffle Chair, & Editor of The Patriot Yearbook in addition to volunteering during the school year at many of our fun events.  I have recently joined the board of The Pflugerville Education Foundation to further my commitment to not only the students of Riojas but all of PFISD.  My dedication to my children, the harmony of the classrooms, our staff, & the overall success of Riojas drives me to be an active & involved parent & advocate.  We have a wonderful school with devoted teachers, administrative staff and volunteers, and I look forward to another great year!

The PTO, a non-profit organization, is successful through gracious parent volunteers desiring to foster a strong community.
