About Us

My name is Anthony Montalvo. The last three years I have been on the School Site Committee. My experience is in local government and in community organizing. My work mostly involved collaborating and leading diverse teams to drive positive change within our communities. I firmly believe in the benefit of teamwork and fostering strong relationships. I am also experienced in reviewing budgets and plans that require public input. With limited resources in our educational system I know every dollar spent is crucial. I look forward to joining parents and educators in ensuring our school continues to provide the best educational experience it can for our students.

Hi, I’m Stephanie, a proud parent of an UTK student and an active member of our school community. I’m passionate about creating meaningful, fun, and memorable experiences for our students and families. I truly enjoy being involved wherever help is needed.

By profession, I work in clinical research as a Regulatory Specialist, and I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Healthcare Administration. I am also a Navy veteran, which has strengthened my skills in organization, teamwork, and leadership. I bring that same dedication and reliability into everything I do for our school.

Creating magic and fun for our kids is always my priority, while also supporting and uplifting our teachers. I strongly believe our teachers are the foundation of our school community, and they deserve to feel appreciated and supported. As Vice President, I will be honored to continue building a positive, inclusive, and engaged school environment for all families.

My family has been part of the Juarez community since 2015 (my oldest started in the first Spanish class Juarez offered!), and over the years I’ve really valued the relationships we’ve built with the teachers, staff, and families here. With three daughters who have all attended Juarez, I’ve enjoyed staying involved through PTO events, field trips, classroom support, and helping lead Bulldog Bros to encourage more family involvement within the school community.

In my professional career, I work as an Engineering Manager at a large Cyber Security company. Previously on the side, I served as a Finance Director for a nonprofit organization, where I was responsible for budgeting, financial reporting, operations, and long-term planning. Those experiences have helped shape my approach to leadership, organization, accountability, and financial oversight.

As Treasurer, I’m committed to helping maintain a PTO that is transparent, collaborative, and focused on supporting students, teachers, and school programs in meaningful ways. I’m grateful for the opportunity to give back to a community that has meant so much to my family over the years.

I have been a proud member of the Juarez school community since 2019, teaching both fourth and fifth grade. My husband and I have three boys, and our family is grateful to be part of such a welcoming and supportive school community. This upcoming school year, I’m excited to join Juarez not only as a teacher but also as a UTK parent to my son, Kevin. I have always enjoyed being actively involved in school events and fundraisers, as I believe a strong school community creates a strong foundation for every classroom. I am passionate about supporting our teachers, enriching student experiences, and helping build a connected, joyful environment for all Juarez families. 

My name is Raquel Miranda. I am a long-time Juarez Elementary parent and former PTO Treasurer and President. I remain active in school communication and engagement, supporting Theatre Club fundraising, SSP recognition events, fifth grade and general fundraising, and this year’s Read-A-Thon. I also coordinate Community Readers for our classrooms and continue creating and managing communications and flyers for the events I lead.

I am completing my Master of Social Work through The Ohio State University and serve as a clinical intern providing trauma-focused therapy to youth in foster care and their caregivers. My work requires clear and consistent communication with children, families, caseworkers, and multidisciplinary teams, which has strengthened my ability to collaborate and share information effectively.

I was born and raised in San Diego and attended Juarez as a child. My husband, Brian, and I have two kids: Arielle, a 5th grader, and Caleb, a 10th grader at Henry High. I also serve as Sponsorship and Fundraising Chair for the Henry Football Booster Club. As a working mom balancing graduate school, career, and two kids in different schools, I understand how essential timely communication is for family participation. In my final year at Juarez, I hope to support both new and returning families and help ensure parents have the information they need to stay engaged in their child's education.
