LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

 

Welcome to the 2025-26 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 policy related to federal funding that no food or beverages can be sold at Boyd during the school day so we won't be able to raise money for our programs with profits from snacks sold at the store.  Instead, we are planning some new events to help with fundraising.  These events will also promote member appreciation and student engagement.  More information coming in school newsletters and PTO social media!

 

Here's the support we'd love from you:

 

1.  JOIN THE PTO - Click the "Join US" icon below to join and either update or create your online account.  Membership does not require volunteering.  Membership is a financial donation to our organization which enables us to provide for students and staff at Boyd through our various programs.  Membership also includes participation in and access to our online member directory, if you chose to be listed there.

 

 

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.

 

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 other needs that may arise.  Please complete the volunteer form and our volunteers coordinator will contact you.

 

4.  SUPPORT PTO BRONCO FUNDRAISERS - New this year is the Boyd PTO Hot Dog Member Meal at select PTO events - PTO members get a free hot dog meal for each member of the family.  

 

5.  VISIT PTO TABLEWe will have our Bronco Spirit Store open for spirit wear and membership sales at the following school-wide events:

  • August 9th   Freshman Bronco Camp
  • September 5th Pep Rally and Game
  • September 8th Meet the Teacher 
  • September 12th Meet the Principal at PTO General Meeting
  • October 9th Homecoming Pep Rally and Game
  • October 24th Crosstown Showdown Pep Rally and PTO Tailgate Party

Boyd PTO programs that support students and staff

 

Teacher Needs -  We provide extra classroom and project supplies, over and above teacher budgets.

 

Scholarships - For the last several years, we have been able to provide scholarship awards to graduating seniors through the McKinney Education Foundation.  We have a new endowment called the Steadfast Supporter award that gives $2500 to a family who has been PTO members 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.

 

Staff Appreciation - We provide various meals and snacks to our hardworking Boyd Staff.

 

Project Graduation and MISD Police Academy - We do our best to provide donations to these awesome programs.

 

We also provide the Academic Banner that hangs in the school atrium, special requests by Boyd administration, and contributions to various student groups.

 

Our approved 2025-26 budget is available via link on homepage.
