We are excited about this new school year and the many new successes, experiences and friendships we will all share together.  We are beginning the school year with a technology refresh in all of our classrooms, and we are pleased to announce that Boon PTA has gone digital and launched a complete re-design with our new PTA website!  We encourage you to check out what PTA membership offers for you and to take care of all your paperwork in one place!
 
Please join us for our first General PTA Meeting on Thursday, September 6th with a special STEAM Night!  We are excited to incorporate Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics as access points for your students to participate in as we celebrate the beginning of a new school year!  More details on the fun activities and events for that night will be coming to you via our Patriot Post weekly newsletter.  Please sign up for the newsletter on the Boon Elementary website! 
 
Boon Elementary and the Boon PTA work side-by-side to unify our Boon families, students, and community; and we, as your PTA representatives, want you to feel welcomed and supported.  Please reach out to us at any time!  We will work together in this new school year as we celebrate the past 14 years of Boon history with this year's theme, "Framing Year 14 - Boon's Moments in Time"!
 
Sincerely,
Edika Cope

Learn More about Boon Fundraising

Boon has gone digital! That means that class t-shirt orders and party fund money is now being collected online! 

As we have done in the past, each student contributes $20 at the start of the school year. $10 is for the class t-shirt and $10 is used towards the classroom parties throughout the year. Class t-shirts are worn by students each Wednesday, on class field trips, and other special days at school.

Class Party Fund and T-shirt Orders

Don't delay...make sure you order your student's t-shirt today!

Friday, August 31, is National College Colors Day.

Celebrate the start of the 2018 College Football Season by sending your Boon Patriot to Boon dressed in your favorite college colors, t-shirt, or jersey.
