Originally from Dublin, Ireland, Scarnegi grew up in New Jersey and has lived in the Sun Valley for 18 years. She and her husband have two daughters who attend Alturas Elementary.
“I am honored to have been appointed to serve on the Blaine County School District Board of Trustees,” said Scarnegi. “My primary objective is to be an active and engaged member of the board committed to representing the interests of our community while balancing the needs of students, educators, staff, and parents. My goal is to foster an environment where every child can thrive—academically, socially, and emotionally—by supporting initiatives that promote well-rounded development and equitable opportunities for all.”
“I am grateful to the board and all applicants for their time and dedication to this thorough selection process,” said Jim Foudy, Superintendent. “Mrs. Scarnegi’s commitment to students, education, and our community makes her an excellent addition to the board. I look forward to working with her in this role.”
