Board recognizes volunteers: Becky Singh, Leila Jones and Sean Mortensen honored
Summary
Trustees and parent organizations honored local volunteers for service to Loma Prieta schools, naming Becky Singh (CT volunteer), Leila Jones (district‑level volunteer) and Sean Mortensen (parent longevity award).
The board recognized several volunteers who supported school activities throughout the year. A CT Home & School Club representative (speaker 6) presented flowers to Becky Singh and highlighted her role in planning the Loma Prieta holiday craft fair and volunteering in the kitchen "Friday evening, all day Saturday, and all day Sunday" to serve vendors and guests.
District staff (speaker 3) named Leila Jones as the District Volunteer of the Year, citing long-term service across school-site council, home‑and‑school clubs, the budget advisory committee and the Citizens Bond Oversight Committee. The board also presented a parent longevity award to Sean Mortensen for sustained contributions — from chaperoning field trips to serving on site councils — as he transitions toward a high‑school district board role.
Board members and parents thanked volunteers for fundraising, event coordination and consistent classroom support; several trustees emphasized volunteers’ importance to school events such as the gala, jogathon, and the holiday craft fair.
