January is School Board Appreciation Month and we asked our board members to share a little about themselves.
Brian Maune is married with 6 children and enjoys family time filled with camping weekends both in and out of state. He also enjoys being outdoors for hunting and fishing recreation.
One thing he's learned during COVID is that he and his wife are not blessed with stay-at-home virtual teaching skills. Those kids had to be back in school. He's very thankful for PCSSD teachers!
Thank you, Briane, for your dedication to PCSSD!
