Volunteer Spotlight
We are thrilled to feature Christina Carroll in our Volunteer Spotlight. Christina and Will Carroll have been a part of the St Cecilia Community since 2006 when they relocated from Dallas. They have 2 children currently enrolled at St. Cecilia, Victoria (8th) and Daniel (6th). Christina has made her mark in many ways as an amazing volunteer for both our School and Parish communities. For the last 4 years, Christina has worked on the Finance Committee for both the School and Parish and has also been a member of the Welcoming Committee where she enjoys meeting new school families and helping them get settled into our St. Cecilia culture. Christina has served on both the School Board and the Home and School Association Executive Board. While on the School Board, she was a member of the Faith In Action Committee, served as both Vice President and President and chaired the 2018 60th Anniversary Auction. She was also the HSA treasurer for the 2018-2019 school year and this year she is coordinating the St. Cecilia Cheerleaders and serving on the Learning Commons Committee. In addition to serving in so many ways, Christina has also been a room parent for her children’s homerooms on multiple occasions and is always willing to lend a hand. She and her family are a huge blessing to our School and Parish community in so many ways.
