The purpose of the New Vision PTO is to support and enhance the education of the children at the New Vision Charter School by fostering a spirit of cooperation, and promoting open communication between families and staff of the school.
Jamie Kimberlin
President
I have 2 kiddos at NVCS, a daughter soon to be in 3rd and a son in 7th grade. We have been at New Vision since my son was in 1st grade. I have always loved volunteering in my kids' schools and really enjoy volunteering as the PTO VP. I love seeing the kids and teachers' love for learning as well as being a part of enhancing the education at NVCS through PTO. I am a full time Realtor at Tallent Co. Real Estate and for fun I enjoy being outdoors and active. I enjoy pickleball, paddle boarding, hiking, walking my dog and watching my kids play in our cul-de-sac. My kids are both getting into sports and other extracurriculars so we spend most of our weekends watching him play.
Jennifer Clayton
Vice President
I’m thrilled to be on the PTO board as VP for New Vision! I have fond memories of my mom helping my school & classroom when I was little and I want to provide the same great memories for my 3rd grader, Siena. We love to travel, paddle board, play pickle ball, soccer, swim! My background is quite diverse from extreme sports/pro sports photographer to Director of Operations. I am currently in Horticulture, both commercially and retail. I am excited to continue to be a part of the PTO board and look forward to helping the kids thrive!
Nikol Hamacher
Secretary
I have 3 kiddos at New Vision, 4th, 3rd, and 1st grade. I have always loved being apart of the school my children are attending and volunteering where I can. Joining the PTO was an easy decision to make. Supporting the people that are shaping and teaching my children every day, is something I value dearly. I work full time as a Marketing and Onboarding Specialist. All 3 of my kids are getting into extracurricular activities, and I love watching them put their energy and passion into something they love. But in the free time we have, I love to fish, garden, reading, and take the dog for long walks.
Chelsey Phillips
Treasurer
I have two children at NVCS; a 5th grader and 7th grader. This is our fifth year at New Vision and my first year on the board as Treasurer. I am excited for the opportunity to volunteer at the school and continue the mission of enhancing the partnership between parents and school staff. I work full time doing sales and marketing and for fun I like to swim, do home improvement projects, and binge watch show series.
Over $60k donated to the school in the 2024-2025 school year!
We accept Teacher Requests throughout the year that help bring additional learning experiences to the classrooms.
We show appreciation to the faculty/staff through gift bags & cards, Parent/Teacher conference dinners, warming gear for drive-line attendants & more.
Fund larger requests from the principals to help the global school such as Write to Learn, playground equipment, tablets for teachers to use during testing, updating library inventory, and in 2024 we helped purchase a new sound system for the stage area! We look forward to funding requests for the 2025-2026 year as well!
PTO is also committed to bringing the community together. We strive to provide no or low cost events, in addition to, fundraisers to bring the school, families and community together.
NVCS was featured in the Reporter Herald in March 2023 for the 12-foot-tall Sierpinski Tetrahedron encompassing 4,096 individual triangular pyramids made entirely out of card stock and glue. PTO was pivotal in purchasing supplies for this project. Way to go Mr. Stolte and the tetrahedron club!
