✨Serving with Purpose: PTSA Spotlight Series✨
From the President 💜

Meet the Leaders Behind the Mission!

🥁 Our next spotlight goes to Claudia Vasquez, our AMAZING 4th VP – Hospitality! ✨💚💛

As President of Newman Smith High School PTSA, I am truly grateful for leaders who serve from the HEART. Claudia is one of those people whose compassion, faith, encouragement, and servant leadership naturally pours into everyone around her.

💼 Role: Hospitality
💡 What she does: Helps create welcoming and encouraging environments while supporting our scholars, staff, families, and PTSA events with care and excellence.

❤️ What I appreciate most: Your heart for people, your unwavering encouragement, and your ability to make others feel seen, valued, and supported. You serve with purpose and genuine love for our school community.

🌟 What Claudia Loves Most About Serving:
“I do what I do for the scholars. It takes a village, yes, but we influence, teach, and show them what many of them don’t see sometimes in a world of chaos. We encourage, we show them a proper understanding of what is possible with hard work and dedication. We give some a grain of HOPE.”

💬 Favorite Quote:
“In a world full of chaos, you will find peace (shalom).”
“Believe you can and YOU WILL. I will see you at the finish line as you cross the stage. Don’t give up because I know you can do it—I have faith in you.”

✨ Fun Fact:
Claudia says she may seem a little “crazy” some days, but that’s because her intelligence keeps her moving fast! More importantly, after all life has brought her through, she is intentionally enjoying the blessings of life to the fullest extent possible through faith. 💜

Claudia, thank you for serving Trojan Nation with love, wisdom, strength, and encouragement. Your impact reaches far beyond what you may ever realize, and we are truly blessed to serve alongside you.

With appreciation,
Jerline Woods
