Adams PTA Leadership

  • Edrina Burnette, President

    My family joined the Adams community in 2018. My older son recently graduated from Adams and I now have a rising 1st and 4th grader. I have been a part of the PTA for a few years and I am truly passionate about supporting the teachers and students at Adams.

    Outside Adams
    When I am not volunteering at Adams, I work as a Project Manager at a Research Firm and run my own sewing business! I love watching children grow to their fullest potential and supporting others in achieving their goals.

  • Mary Barnhart, Vice President

    This is my third year at Adam’s, my son is in the 2nd grade in track 1. I have enjoyed the Adams community and am excited to create opportunities to expand community and promote engagement with families and teachers.

    Outside Adams
    I work at NC State University in the Wellness and Recreation Department, creating programs to inspire the NC State community to be healthy, active and build community.

    I enjoy spending time outside, traveling and going to NC State athletic events with friends and family. Go Pack!

  • Kate Nowell, Treasurer

    This is my third year at Adams - my son is entering 2nd grade, and my daughter 1st grade. We have loved our time at Adams, and I am looking forward to supporting the efforts of the PTA to provide fun experiences for our kids and our wonderful teachers!

    Outside Adams
    I work as a Program Manager for an IT company. In my spare time I enjoy traveling and spending time with family, and I love to read!
