Hello, my name is Chad Flanagan. I am serving as President of the PTO this year. This is my second year of serving on the PTO. I’m still impressed by the hard work and generosity of the parents who serve on this PTO. I am married with three children. We have a third grader and one starting in kindergarten this year. Our third has just arrived and so we will be a part of Nativity for some time yet. My wife works at Harland Financial Solutions in Fargo and I work as a consultant at Eide Bailly LLP.
Hi! My husband David and I have been married for 14 years and are blessed with two boys: Samuel, a first grader at Nativity, and Andrew, who will descend upon our school next year for Kindergarten. They are the greatest gifts we have ever been given and we feel so lucky to be parents (most of the time!). David works as a Safety Coordinator at Cargill, Inc. in Wahpeton and for the past 16 years I have been fulfilling God’s calling as a Youth Minister, currently as the Director of Youth Ministry at St. Benedict’s Catholic Church of Wild Rice. I feel honored to be serving on this year’s PTO as the Vice President. We so love Nativity school and are so happy to be a part of the Nativity family…the parents are so excited and willing to be involved! It’s a great place to be!! I look forward to getting to know and working with all of you in the coming months! God Bless!
What a wonderful thrill and honor to have one more year in which to serve the Nativity family community. I also feel honored to serve with such a lively and giving group of individuals on the Nativity PTO Board.
My wife Di and I are the proud parents of 4th-grader Leo and our now 4-year-old triplets Emily, Hannah and Nicholas. As a stay-at-home father of a wife who travels, I find myself busy with my family. But that doesn't mean I don't have enough time to cheer on my New York Yankees, run a marathon or two each year, involve myself in free-lance photography and writing and spending quality time outdoors with my children.

Hi! My name is Amy Mathias, I am currently serving as Secretary for the Nativity School PTO Board. I have been married to my husband Stacey for 11 years and we have a 8 year old son, Hunter, who is a 3rd grader at Nativity. Stacey is a Regional Sales Manager for GPK Products and I work at Frontier Trust Co., FSB. Our main area of interests are anything Hunter is involved in; baseball, swimming, football, and wrestling. These activities keep us on the move year round. The best part about these activities and also serving on the Nativity PTO and being part of the Nativity School Community, are all the new friends we have made as a family. Just knowing there are so many great families within Nativity School that we can count on is a true blessing!

Susan Noah , Deputy Public Relations Coordinator
I'm Susan Noah and my husband, Matt, and I moved to Fargo last year. I'm originally from San Diego and have lived many places before landing here in Fargo. We have six sons, four of whom are in the FCSN. (Mike is in 3rd, and Luke 1st at Nativity). Having often been the "new kid" or "new family" myself, I find the PTO is a great way to connect to a school community and get to know and welcome other families. I look forward to a great year!

Our two youngest children, JackJack (3) and Lucy (1), will certainly follow in their siblings’ footsteps!

We are both from eastern Pennsylvania and after just two years in Fargo, we recognize what a wonderful, unique and supportive community Nativity is and how fortunate we and our children are to be a part of it.
