Meet Your PTO Executive Board Members!
Our PTO is comprised of hardworking parents, guardians, and teachers who pool their talents to provide practical support for our school. Those listed below volunteered to provide leadership for the 2025–2026 school year. Get to know their names and faces, and feel free to reach out for questions.
Co-President: Angie B.
I’m thrilled to be serving as Co-President of the Field PTO Executive Board this year! My husband and I have lived in Park Ridge since 2020, and our daughter, Mallory, is currently a fourth grader at Field. We’ve loved being a part of this vibrant school community—so much so that I couldn’t help but jump into the fun. From co-producing Field Follies (where Mallory once played Don King!) to helping with Girl Scouts and joining in the V-Show, it’s been a joy to support the students, staff, and fellow parents at Field.
In my spare time, you can find me crafting with my Cricut, reading fantasy novels, designing theater sets, or figuring out how to add another pun to a trivia night flyer. I’m also a lifelong Detroit Red Wings fan—so if you spot me in a Winged Wheel hoodie, come talk hockey!
Co-President: Nicole Hrycyk
I'm excited to stay on the Board this year and try out a new role as Co-President this year! We've got a great Board and I'm looking forward to working with everyone. This is my 5th year on the Board, having previously served as Treasurer & Co-VP. I enjoy being a behind-the-scenes organizer, but also love working with students! My son, Zach, is in 5th grade this year and it was fun (if a little chaotic!) helping his group with a Follies scene over the summer. My daughter, Tessa, is in 3rd grade. We've lived in Park Ridge since 2017. I work in health policy for a consulting company and have been involved with several non-profit Boards/organizations previously. My husband and I love to travel (with and without kids!), I’m an avid reader, and our weekends are usually taken up by sports for one or both of the kids! (Also, like Angie, a Wings fan! Which has made for some interesting hockey seasons in our house over the years, since my husband, Nate, is a Blackhawks fan.)
Co-Vice President: Sara Sweeney
I'm pumped to serve as co-VP along with Lauren! I am a lifelong Niles resident and still live there with my husband, Brian, and our 3 kids - Ryann - 8th, Jake - 5th, and Rory - 1st. I've had the opportunity to be a part of the wonderful Field community for several years by this point, and fortunately, have several more to go! Before joining the board, I contributed by participating in PTO meetings, helping out our room parents with class parties, serving as a scene coach for Field Follies, and helping plan a couple parent night out events. I work in corporate fleet management and when I'm not working, you can usually find me at one of the kid's sporting events. I look forward to meeting many of you this school year - whether at Field or around town!
Co-Vice President: Lauren W.
Hi! I’m Lauren Wilson, and I’m thrilled to serve as Co-VP with my friend Sara. I have two kids at Field, Jeff (5th grade) and Abby (3rd grade). Over the years, I have been active in the Field community, including serving as a room mom, a classroom volunteer, a coach for Field Follies, and participating in the V-Show (this year, I’m heading up the Newcomers Committee!). My husband, Andrew, and I have lived in Park Ridge for nine years, and Andrew is very active in the Wilderness Scouts community. My job in commercial equipment leasing with a large financial institution keeps me pretty busy, but in my free time, I love catching up with friends, diving into a good book, or enjoying a great meal in downtown Park Ridge. I can’t wait to help grow our PTO community and plan some fun events this year.
Treasurer: Scott P. (Bio TBD)
Co-Secretary: Olivia F. (Bio TBD)
Co-Secretary: Holly C.
This is my first year working on the board and I am looking forward to working more closely with the Field community. My son Leo is in 2nd grade and my daughter Lorraine will be starting at Field in the fall of 2026 (She is currently in preschool at St. Monica Academy.). I am a nurse practitioner working in cardiac surgery and also own my own medical aesthetics business. For my business, I have created monthly newsletters and dabbled in website creation and I am excited to use skills in this role. I am even more excited to get to have a partner-in-crime with Olivia as co-secretary. My past involvement in the Field community includes volunteering as a scene leader with Field Follies for the past 2 shows. This experience made me gain an even greater appreciation for all that the teachers and staff at Field do for our kids (and the immense amount of patience they all have, lol). In my free time, I enjoy traveling with friends and family, running, and gardening.
