Meet the Board

President - Maile Coad

Hi Astros! My name is Maile Coad, and this is my second year as President of the Ladd Acres PTA. Previously, I have served as the Vice President for 2 years and have been Chairing the Book Fair. I have two children at Ladd, a 5th grader and a 2nd.

I love supporting the library. One of my biggest goals for the upcoming year is to enrich and support the Ladd Acres community.

Vice President - Lisa Cavanaugh

This is my second year on the PTA board. I have 3 children, the oldest of which is in middle school and previously attended Ladd Acres. I also currently have twins at Ladd Acres. I have volunteered with various events at Ladd Acres in the past, from Carnival to yearbook. My favorite event isn’t an event, but the connections and families I meet each time I volunteer. I am looking forward to helping maintain the active Ladd Community and building up support for all students.

Secretary - Rochelle Zirdum


Hello there! I'm Rochelle Zirdum, serving in my second year as Secretary of the Ladd Acres PTA. With two kids attending Ladd Acres and a college freshman at OSU, my family is deeply rooted in this community. Over the years, we've enthusiastically participated in numerous PTA and Hillsboro community events.

As we progress through the academic year, my focus will be on opportunities to have fun and build community. My goal is to provide resources and opportunities that will contribute to a memorable, enriching, and community-building experience for everyone involved. Let's make this year full of fun and meaningful connections!

Treasurer - Natalie Walker

Hello Everyone! My name is Natalie Walker and this is my first year as Treasurer, and my first year in the Ladd Acres PTA! I have two kids at Ladd, in 2nd and 5th grade. I moved to Hillsboro at 6 years old and have lived here ever since and worked in Hillsboro schools before deciding to stay home with my kids. I’m looking forward to supporting our teachers, enriching student learning experiences, and sponsoring events where families can meet each other and make connections.
