Why Did you Join the MTC Board

​

I serve on the Mother Teresa Regional Catholic School Board because Catholic education has had strong influence on my life. Raised by a single mother who made sacrifices to send my brother and me to Catholic school, I learned the value of faith, community, and perseverance. My husband and I chose the same path for our children, Brendan, Grace, and Erin, who all attended MTC from pre-K through middle school. Our family thrived in this close-knit environment that truly feels like a second family. Through my role on the Board, I hope to help with the mission of providing as many families as possible with the opportunity to provide this type of experience for their children,  if it is important to them.

Why Did you Join the MTC Board

​

My family has been part of the MTC community since 1958. Five members of the Carney family attended MTC, and my mother dedicated over 35 years working in the Rectory as a secretary and assistant. My siblings and I played sports, volunteered, and were deeply involved in parish life, including my band performing at the annual carnival from its earliest days.

MTC holds a special place in my heart and in my upbringing. The values I learned here shaped the person I am today, both professionally and personally. I credit my eight years at MTC with laying the foundation for my character, work ethic, and commitment to service. Joining the Board is my way of giving back to the community that gave so much to me.
