Noha Bross
My husband and I have 2 boys, Alex in 4th Grade and Kyle in 2nd Grade. We have been members of St. Theresa Parish for 10 years and our boys have attended St. Theresa School since Kindergarten.
My volunteer work at STS during the last few years includes chairing the Ice Cream Socials, co-chairing the St. Theresa Feast Day celebration,Spring Fling Committee and Race For Education. I'm a home room mom and a recess helper.
I worked for Commerce Bank for 20 years and was the VP/Director of Branch Operations for all their branches prior to leaving to be a stay at home mom.While working, I was an active member of the Capitol Area Sertoma (Service To Mankind) Club and served as the Treasurer for many years.
My family and I thoroughly enjoy being a part of the St. Theresa community and I would love to help further by being a part of the School Board.

Brigid Brown
My name is Brigid Brown. I'm a member of Trinity High School’s Class of 1994 and my daughter Talulah is a first grader at St. Theresa’s. I was a professor at The University of Utah and Utah State University before moving back to Pennsylvania where I work part time from home. I would like to join the school board so that I can give back to St. Theresa’s school community, much like both of my parents did while my older brother, Matthew and I attended Trinity. I have been helping with the school’s special education program this year and have enjoyed my time there. Working from home provides me with free time to support school activities, such as the golf outing at the beginning of the year. I hope to have the opportunity to offer my time to the school board for St. Theresa's School.

Kevin Frantz
My name is Kevin Frantz and my son is currently a fifth grader at St. Theresa’s School. My family and I have been a part of the St. Theresa’s School family since 2005 when my daughter, who is now a freshman at Trinity High School, first attended Mrs. Zimmerman’s preschool 4 class.
I am a native of Pottsville, PA, a graduate ofDeSales University and I'm currently employed as an Administrative Analyst for the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania. I live in Camp Hill with my wife, Denise, and our kids, Ellen and Ben.We are members of the Cathedral Parish of St. Patrick in Harrisburg.
Havingour kids attend a Catholic school has always been important to my wife and me, and our kids have thrived at St. Theresa’s School. I am running for school board to help ensure that St. Theresa’s School continues to provide the quality, catholic education we have come to appreciate.

I also work full time in sales at Faulkner Honda. My husband Adam and I have been together for 15 years! Life is crazy, but wonderful!

Leslie St. John
Hello! I have two daughters that have attended St. Theresa's since they were 3 years of age. Sophia is starting kindergarten and Paige (just made her 1st Holy Communion) will be starting 3rd grade in the fall. I am married to Ryan St John who will also start classes in the fall on becoming a catholic.
I would like to run for school board to give back to the school that has done a wonderful job with my children's love of learning and learning about the Catholic faith. I believe God belongs in a school, and this is one of the top reasons I send my children there. I think this school has the best interest of the children at heart. I would like to assist in any way I can to excel or improve this wonderful school.
I have lived in The Harrisburg area since 2004 after serving in the U.S. Navy. I attended Hawaii Pacific University where I studied computer science. I am originally from Johnstown, PA. I became a Realtor in 2005. I really enjoy selling homes and the flexibility it provided us. I have volunteered at the school for different events, most recently the retreat for the 2nd grade. I have served on other boards such as the Pennsylvania Association of Realtors as a voting director, The Greater Harrisburg Association of realtors as a director, the Government affairs committee and part of a grant writing committee...where I believe I have made a positive impact on saving money, successful fundraisers and other tasks. I would like to be considered for this position.
