We Need Your Help!

Our upcoming Boggess classroom parties can’t happen without our amazing volunteers.

We are planning an END OF YEAR PARTY full of fun activities for our 5TH GRADERS to celebrate with their classmates before they graduate to Murphy Middle School. It's their final class party, but bigger. It's Field Day Part 2, but only for fifth graders.

DATE: Thursday, May 21

With your help, we can create a day our 5th graders won’t forget!

It takes extra hands to pull off an event like this. Volunteers will help set up, run stations like games and photo booth, serve food, and clean up. Volunteers must be background checked through Voly, and only volunteers will be allowed to attend the party.

DATE: Friday, May 23

As we close out the school year, PTA would like to recognize several volunteers of the month for May, June, and July. Each of these volunteers were a huge help to PTA not only for one month, but throughout the year. We cannot say THANK YOU enough!

Kacey Miranda
Kacey, our grade-level coordinator, has put in so much work this year for the students and staff at Boggess. From coordinating grade-level parties and events, to stepping in to help with hospitality or anywhere she’s needed, she has truly gone above and beyond. Her dedication and support is such an asset to our PTA team!

Jessica Grubb
Jessica Grubb has become a big part of our PTA this year. She served as our SAGE (Special and Gifted Education) Chair, helping bring the program back for our 3rd-5th grade students after many years. Jessica also steps in at PTA events wherever she’s needed and is always one of the first to ask how she can help. Her commitment to our students and staff is top-notch, and we are so thankful for the positive impact she’s made on our school community!

Julia Matocha
Julia is the first person people see when coming into our school, and she is always friendly and helpful. On top of her daily responsibilities, she continually goes above and beyond to support the PTA in any way needed. From sorting and counting papers to helping with Book Fair setup and tear-down, Julia is always willing to step in and lend a hand. We truly love having her at our school and are so grateful for all she does!
