Bhavana Thakur

President

I’m a software professional by day and an enthusiastic volunteer in my free time. I’ve served on the West PTO board for multiple years, beginning with my first term when my older child was a CMSW Wrangler. Over the years, I’ve been actively involved with PTOs at both the elementary and middle school levels. I currently have a 7th grader at West and look forward to continuing my involvement throughout my children’s school years—helping to create a positive and enriching environment for all students.
