Raeann and her husband Jake have lived in New Territory for six years. They have two kiddos, Isla and Dean, who both attend WSE. Raeann works as a substitute teacher/parapro for FBISD, primarily working at WSE.
Raeann’s involvement with the PTO began with volunteering at the Stallion Stampede and heading the Nomination Committee, followed up with a year as Communications Secretary on the board. She loves hanging out with the kiddos and staff, supporting however she can, including making sure Jake is involved in our Dads Club.
Raeann is looking forward to the new school year and the many adventures and opportunities that await. She strongly encourages all our WSE families to get involved and engage with our PTO. There are so many ways to get involved or just learn something new. You don’t know what you don’t know, so reach out and help out.
Fundraising Secretary

Brandi, and her husband Mark, have three boys at home: Mark Jr. (Austin HS), Jacob (WSE), and Jack (WSE). Brandi got her start with the PTO as a committee chair for WSE’s Stallion Stampede and and is really looking forward to being able to dedicate her year to fundraising events that engage the community and support the PTO.
By day, Brandi works as a Senior VP in banking. The Arredondos live and work in Sugar Land and love the diversity and community. Mark is also involved in Dad's Club! They would love for you to reach out to either of them about getting more involved.
Brandi can't wait to see the support for the new PTO board President and VP, as well as Principal Granger, and is eager to see the WSE families come together to support and encourage all of the students.
