Meet the PTA Presidents!

 

President
Samantha Reigada
 
 

PTA is thrilled to have Samantha Reigada serving as our PTA President for the 2025–2026 school year!


After serving as President Elect last year, Samantha is excited to take on this leadership role and continue supporting the Centennial community. She has previously served as Outreach Chair and helped coordinate our bi-annual Book Fairs.

 

Samantha grew up in São Paulo, Brazil, and has lived in Plano for 7 years with her husband Abel and their two boys, Daniel (4th grade) and Gabriel (8th grade).

 

Formerly a jewelry designer, Samantha is now a stay-at-home mom. As a family, they enjoy watching Star Wars, playing games, traveling, cheering on their favorite sports teams, and spending time with their dog, Ginger.

 

I feel incredibly honored to serve as your PTA President. Being part of the Centennial community has been a true gift, and I’m continually inspired by the heart, dedication, and energy of our families, teachers, and staff.

PTA has not only allowed me to give back—it has connected me deeply to this amazing school and the people who make it so special. I’m excited to collaborate, celebrate, and support one another through meaningful events, important initiatives, and joyful moments throughout the year.

Let’s make this year one to remember—for our students and each other! "
