Letter From The President
Welcome to the 2026-27 school year at McKinney Boyd High School! Thank you for visiting the PTO website. Here you can join, volunteer, purchase spirit gear, get information about our events and programs, and more!
This year, we have a pretty big change. MISD has a federal funding policy stating that no food or beverages may be sold at Boyd during the school day, so we won't be able to raise money for our programs from snack sales at the store.
Here's the support we'd love from you:
1. JOIN THE PTO - Click the "Join PTO" icon above to join and either update or create your online account. Membership does not require volunteering. Membership is a financial donation to our organization that enables us to support students and staff at Boyd through our various programs. Membership also includes participation in and access to our online member directory, if you choose to be listed there. **new this year---sponsor a staff membership to help your favorite teacher/coach save on their membership**
2. PURCHASE SPIRIT GEAR - We have designed some fun, creative gear to help you and your students show their school spirit and get behind our awesome school sports, clubs, and groups. We have new designs and products every year!
3. VOLUNTEER - We will need volunteers for the school store (to sell spirit gear and school supplies-type items), to help us sell memberships and spirit gear at various events, for staff appreciation events, for PTO fundraisers, and for other needs that may arise. Please complete the volunteer form, and our volunteer coordinator will contact you.
4. VISIT PTO TABLE - We will have our Bronco Spirit Store open for spirit wear and membership sales at the following school-wide events:
- August 7th Schedule pick up for Sophomores, Juniors & Seniors
- August 8th Freshman Bronco Camp
- August 31st Meet the Teacher / Open House
- September 10th Meet the Principal at PTO General Meeting
5. Become a PTO SPONSOR - McKinney Boyd loves to support our community, and we know our community loves to support McKinney Boyd students and families. Become a PTO sponsor, and we will include your logo on our website and social media outlets. Click on the Be a PTO Sponsor tab for more information.

Boyd PTO programs that support students and staff
Teacher Needs - We provide items that teachers can use to enhance the learning process that are not possible within their district-allotted funds. This year, our budget for this program is $20,000. We have already funded new entryway mats with a prominent Boyd logo.
Scholarships - For the past several years, we have provided scholarship awards to graduating seniors through the McKinney Education Foundation. We have a new endowment called the Steadfast Supporter Award that awards $ 2,500 to a family that has been a PTO member for all four years! We have also awarded four $1000 scholarships (two for PTO members, two selected from all Boyd applicants) and four $1000 First In Family scholarships to graduating seniors who are the first in their families to receive their high school diploma. This year, our budget for scholarships is $10,500.
Staff Appreciation - We provide various meals and snacks to our hardworking Boyd Staff throughout the school year, with a $7,000 budget. Food item contributions are still needed, so check Sign-Up Genius to sign up to bring food or beverages.
Project Graduation and MISD Police Academy - Project Graduation is a district-wide event for seniors on the night of graduation, celebrating in a safe, fun environment. The Teen Police Academy is a summer program for our district youth to build leadership skills and develop character. Our budget this year is $5,500 for donations to these organizations.
We also fund the following: annual Academic Banner that hangs in the school atrium, special requests by the Boyd administration, and contributions to various student groups.
Our approved 2026-27 budget is available via the link on the homepage.
