Who We Are
What is the ESF Board?
The ESF Board is made up of dedicated community members who strive to further our mission to provide enrichment funding to Eureka Union School District. Board members hold various roles, which can change depending on current needs and Board-member skill sets. For details on Board terms, powers, and more, please see our Bylaws.
If you’re interested in joining this dynamic group of volunteers, do not hesitate to contact us.

Boardroom
Officers
Jessica Keefe
President
ESF is all about paying it forward…what we raise this year determines what EUSD is able to offer next year. I appreciate what past parents did for my kids and want to do the same so that others can enjoy the benefits of this district.
Cory Salzillo
VP, Governance & Internal Affairs
I serve ESF because ESF is dedicated to enriching the educational experience of my son and his peers. The ripple effect of ESF’s good work reverberates beyond our schools and deep into our community with irreplaceable benefits.
Khinh Hoang
Treasurer
I am passionate about helping kids’ education and see the tremendous effect that ESF has on EUSD.
Lorrie Robertson
Secretary
ESF ensures that my children have access to critical components of a well-rounded education: music, foreign language, STEM, athletics, and more. Without these, they would be limited in their future endeavors—inside and outside the classroom.
Directors
Melissa Gutzman
Director
I support ESF because enrichment helps students become well rounded. I also believe that there is no other cause more important than investing in my child’s education.
Trici Jones
Auction Gala Chair
Jessica Marrone-Neumann
Director
The reality is that public school funding is not enough to provide a competitive education for our children. The ESF raises money in order to continue the EUSD’s excellent standards in education that go above and beyond what a public school can offer on it’s own. As a transfer family to the EUSD, I want to be a part of ensuring all of our children continue to thrive in an amazing district.
Luciano Oviedo
Sponsorships
I volunteer to help make a positive impact on education and promote art-based STEM for all kids.
Breanne Patterson
Director
I joined ESF because I believe parent support and community engagement have a direct impact on children’s education. Supporting ESF and its mission means giving children opportunities to thrive while investing in the future of our communities.
Tony Schroeder
Technology
I want the best for my kids and my community and that demands all of us to come together to support our schools.
