FullSizeRender-2PTO Spotlight with PTO Early Dismissal Movie Chair Nadine HartmanQ: Tell us about your family.A: My Husband Phil and I have lived in Brookline for 2 years, and previously lived in Boston for over 10 years.  We are both from the Midwest, but love the East Coast!  Our daughter Maya just turned 4 and attends BEEP at Driscoll and our son Liam is 6 and is in 1 Har.Q: Tell us how you came to serve as PTO Early Release Movie Chair?A:  When Liam started Kindergarten at Driscoll, we were new to the school, and to Brookline, so I thought volunteering would be a nice way to get involved and to meet people.  I saw that the PTO was looking for someone to take over the movies, so I thought why not.  Meg Brackley and Lori Day (Pto Board Members) did a great job selling it to me JQ: Any advice for parents wanting to get involved at Driscoll?A: Most parents have time restrictions, and volunteering can be tough to squeeze in, but there are always ways to get involved on your own time as well, if that was something you wanted to do. You can always reach out to anyone on the PTO – and I’m sure they can find something for you!Q: Do your kids have a favorite PTO program?A: I would say the Carnival!  What they put together on the Driscoll field is pretty amazing, and the kids just have so much fun.Q: Fun Fact: What's something we should know about you that we don't? OR What do you like doing in your free time?A: In my free time I like to ski, go to the beach, socialize with friends and family, and travel when I can.
