Rachel Hilz
Hi! My name is Rachel and I have a beautiful second-grader here at Lance. This is our third year. My daughter and I share a love for all things LTE— especially, the Holly Jolly Market! It was her favorite event last year. We love contributing to our school community and are proud to be Lance Lions. As a long-time resident of the area, I’m excited to serve the PTA and give back near a community where I went to school as a young girl. My daughter and I live with my parents in Stardust Ranch.

I'm excited to serve as the Council Delegate for the Lance Thompson PTA for the 2025–2026 school year. I look forward to building meaningful connections at the district level, sharing important updates, and keeping our Lance community informed and engaged.
My family has been part of the Northlake community for nearly a decade, and we’ve truly appreciated watching it grow while being part of the Lance Thompson family. I’m passionate about building strong connections and enjoy spending my time outdoors, plants, researching, crafting, volunteering, and traveling.
