As a Hilarian, she was taught to be of service to her community while achieving and sustaining academic excellence. And, as a member of the enlisted corps in the US Air Force, Ayana Simone Hodges has been able to live those ideals.
With the Air Force’s core values of Integrity First, Service Before Self, and Excellence in All We Do, Hodges has found a mirror to the ideals and principles she was introduced to as a child.

A longtime Monroeville resident and Gateway graduate was sworn in as the school district’s newest member on Feb. 16 after being appointed last week.

Mungo, an African American woman who in 2019 retired as a Pennsylvania State Police trooper, said she has always wanted to serve on the school board.
