Board of Trustees

Born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Jill Judd moved to Dubois, Wyoming, nearly 40 years ago. She instantly fell in love with "the west" and has made it her home since. Jill is an artist, a gardener, an outdoor recreationist, a business owner, and above all else, a mother to three wonderful children (all Dubois High School graduates!). She owns and operates her own business, Roca Jewelry Designs, which is located in a quaint work studio near her home along the Wind River. Jill is also an enthusiastic community volunteer, having served on many boards and committees throughout the years, including the Dubois Town Council, Dubois Ambulance Service, Dubois Medical Board, Chamber of Commerce, and the Dennison Lodge Board. Currently she serves as the board clerk of the Fremont County School District #2 Board of Education, vice president of the Boys and Girls Club of Dubois, and is a member of Dubois Volunteers, Inc. Jill has also been a substitute teacher and tutor in Dubois for more than a decade and is a committed child advocate. She is passionate about promoting academic excellence as well as providing meaningful support and services to children in Dubois. She hopes to impact positive growth for all students in the Dubois Schools during her term as a school board member.
