Janene and her husband Kerry have been married for 15 years, and have 3 children. Emma, 6th Grade, Lillian 3rd Grade and Jacob, who is 4 and in preschool.

She is currently a paralegal for Husker Law where she has been employed for the last three years.
Janene has actively been a part of the PTO for the last three years, since moving to the Bennington School District from Saddlebrook Public School. She is active as a Room Parent for both girls and enjoys attending events at the school. She has also helped with the Craft Boutique and Staff Appreciation Week. This is Janene’s second year serving on the board. She is open to suggestions especially fundraising and hopes to have a wonderful and productive year! If you see her around school please introduce yourself! She is looking forward to meeting more Heritage parents, though admits that she is horrible with names, so you may be introducing yourself a couple times. ;)
