FAMILY GIVING
The Boone PTO plans to provide over $450,000 this year to pay for supplies and programs. Thank you to all the Bulldogs and the community who have participated to help ensure that BOONE SHINES BRIGHT this year.
For questions, please contact Kerry Dyer at familygiving@boonepto.org.
WHY IS IT NEEDED?
Nearly 70% of our tax dollars are recaptured by the state and redistributed to lower income districts, leaving us with fewer dollars per student than neighboring districts and resulting in lower pay for HPISD teachers. Our fundraising helps close this budget gap for both our students and teachers.
