MEET THE TEAM
The PPIRA Board is comprised of a small but mighty group of educators that are passionate about literacy and supporting the needs of all stakeholders in the Pikes Peak Region.

SANDRA BANKES
Member at Large
Sandra has been a long-time PPIRA Board Member. She is extremely organized and very detailed-oriented. We were beyond lucky to have her to manage our finances for many years as our Treasurer! This year she has requested to move into the Member at Large role as she focuses her energy on supporting D11 as a community member. She plans to support behind the scenes with our many community projects and will continue to focus her time and energy on our yearly service project. We don't know what we would do without her!
