Hello, Panther families! I’m Mrs. Jess, and I'm excited to return for my 9th year at Vail Pittman Elementary, where I’ve proudly served as office manager for the past 5 years. As a Las Vegas native and former Pittman student, I’ve been part of this incredible community for over 30 years. Seeing our students shine every day inspires me, and I’m eager to work with you to make this school year a success for your amazing children.​ Married for 20 years, my husband and I are proud parents of three amazing kids. When I’m not at school, I love RZR riding, camping, and beach trips with my family. I’m excited for a fantastic year ahead and look forward to seeing our Panther community thrive!
GO PANTHERS!
