PTA Board Members and Chairs
Finesse Haverly
Secretary
Hi there! This is my first year at Joslin, and I’m loving it so far. I was ecstatic to join a PTA that is so involved with the classrooms and making the school the best environment for safety, learning, fun, and cultural inclusion. We have a first grader at Joslin in the Mandarin program, and we are always excited for her to tell us what she’s learned. Being secretary keeps me involved and engaged in all things Joslin. Happy to serve!
Josephine Tidwell
Volunteer Coordinator
This will be my 3rd year at Joslin and my first year on the PTA board. Last year, I was the room parent for both of our awesome 5th grade teachers. It was incredibly rewarding to make a huge impact in my son's classroom! This year, I have 1st and 4th grade Jaguars. I love being at Joslin and I spend a lot of time volunteering there, so it was only natural for me to become the Volunteer Coordinator! I hope to connect parents with opportunities to become a part of this wonderful community and share everything I've learned over the past few years. Reach out to me to learn about becoming a room parent in your child's class!
Allie Cassel
Campus Beautification Chair
Hi everyone! This will be my family's fifth year at Joslin and my second year on the PTA Beautification Committee. My daughters are in 4th and 1st grade and we have a 3 year old. My husband and I are landscape architects and we are passionate about all things gardening and outdoor learning. We hope to work with the Joslin community to help make the campus as beautiful, inviting, and sustainable as possible. Please introduce yourself if you see me in the garden!
Ting-Yi Chen
Yearbook Chair
This is my 4th year at Joslin and my first year on the PTA board. My daughters are in PreK-4/2nd grade. I am passionate about photography especially capturing moments of my kids and her friends. Our yearbook keeps all the good memories that we create at Joslin and you can be part of it! If you have any photos you’d like to share in the yearbook, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with me.
Sabrina Joy
Vice President/ Fundraising Chair
This is my third year at Joslin and we love this school SO much! I have a first and fourth grader and a wild toddler who is always with me. You'll hear a lot from me during our fundraising events: Spooktacular, Read-a-thon, and Spring Fling. Fundraising is so important because without it, we couldn't pull off all of the awesome things we do for Joslin students!
Brianna McKay
Healthy Living Chair
I'm Ms. McKay, Joslin's music teacher! This is my third year at Joslin and I'm so excited to continue as the Healthy Living Chair for PTA. Healthy Living promotes three main pillars: Healthy Bodies, Healthy Minds, and a Healthy Earth. This year we are working to promote all three pillars with an emphasis on Healthy bodies and minds for our students, families, and staff.
Dot Aikman
Treasurer
This will be our family's 3rd year at Joslin and as members of the PTA. This year I'm a 2nd grade room parent and I'm on the Board as the PTA Treasurer. We have a 2nd grade son and a 5th grade daughter, we all just love our Joslin community and are happy to support the school in any way we can. As Treasurer, I am excited to be able to help and to utilize my computer and organizational skills to keep our books and budgets tight and balanced. You will most likely see me around the school. Come up and say hi!
Penelope Lim
Communications Chair
This is my second year at Joslin and thus my second year as Communications Chair. My son is in the 1st grade Spanish/Mandarin program. I also have a daughter who will become a Jaguar next year. I am excited to learn all about Joslin while ensuring everyone is just as informed. My hope is that stronger communication builds a stronger community. If you have anything to share in The JAG newsletter, please let us know!
Jessica Sanders

Hi there! This is my second year being a part of our wonderful PTA. I am so honored to continue being Joslin’s Teacher Appreciation Chair.

This is our third year at Joslin—my son is in 3rd grade and my daughter is in the Spanish program going into 1st grade. We are so happy to be back at this amazing school!
