WELCOME BOBCATS!
News & Upcoming Events!
Thank you Binkley friends and family for making this years events successful! Together we raised around $20,000!
Please help Boosters plan for next year by giving feedback on events, fundraisers and activities from the 2022-2023 school year. We appreciate your input and value your ideas which will be used to help make decisions on future Boosters events. Meetings are always open for all to attend and we look forward to seeing you next year.

You have no doubt seen the Binkley Boosters fundraising (dine and donates, Turkey Trot, See's candy, spirit wear, Read-a-Thon, Heart Grams--the list goes on!) and you might have wondered--where does that money go? Of course, every dollar goes back to Binkley in one way or another, but the distribution might surprise you! We work closely alongside Principal Harvell to make sure these funds are put to their best possible use for all our Bobcats!
Field Trips
Parents are asked to donate to field trip costs if they are able, but Boosters provide scholarships for students in need as well. We also help offset the costs for the more expensive field trips--if you attended our Winter Festival in December, you helped send this year's 4th grade classes to Coloma!
Classroom Supplies
Did you know Boosters provide a stipend check to every teacher at the beginning of the school year to help purchase supplies? The Bobcat folders that go home with every student each year are also made possible by Boosters fundraising!
Assemblies & Programs
Assemblies are often paid for from Boosters funds, from Common Ground Society's inclusion assembly to the BMX bike rider demonstration. Grade level specific programs are also sponsored by Boosters, like the recent 6th grade "Ancient Arts and Tech" program from Paleotechnics! Other programs help bring together our Binkley community--if you've enjoyed Coffee with the Principal, your coffee and donuts have been provided by Boosters funds!
Student Incentives
We all know kids love a good prize, and many of those prizes are funded by Boosters! Each month, one student from each class is selected as the Bobcat who best embodies the month's theme. These students receive a coveted Bobcat of the Month hat. Students who master their first 100 sight words are rewarded with a t-shirt which they wear with pride! Classes who fill up their ticket jars as part of Binkley's PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) program earn class rewards like a dance party with the principal!
Playground Equipment
Have you seen the "sensory paths" painted in the kindergarten play yard and other areas around Binkley? How about the new "point and play" banner near the big toy, which helps our non-verbal and limited-verbal students communicate and connect with their peers at recess? These playground upgrades were sponsored by Boosters, along with the new gaga ball pit a few years ago!
Community Events
Building a supportive and welcoming community is a big portion of the Boosters mission, and community events are at the center of our efforts. We organize and host multiple free community events throughout the school year for all Bobcat families to attend, including the popular Welcome Back Party, Trunk or Treat, and Multicultural Night! We also support events that take place during the school day to include all students, such as Fine Arts Day, Field Day, and Camp Binkley.
And More
The list of projects and events at Binkley that are supported by Boosters fundraising is a long one, and we couldn't do any of it without you! Thank you for your support!

Sin duda, ha visto la recaudación de fondos de Binkley Boosters (cenar y donar, Turkey Trot, See's candy, ropa de espíritu, Read-a-Thon, Heart Grams, ¡la lista continúa!) y es posible que se haya preguntado: ¿de dónde sale ese dinero? ¿ir? Por supuesto, cada dólar vuelve a Binkley de una forma u otra, ¡pero la distribución podría sorprenderlo! ¡Trabajamos en estrecha colaboración con la directora Harvell para asegurarnos de que estos fondos se utilicen de la mejor manera posible para todos nuestros Bobcats!
Viajes al campo/paseos
Se les pide a los padres que donen para los costos de las excursiones si pueden, pero los Boosters también brindan becas para los estudiantes que las necesitan. También ayudamos a compensar los costos de las excursiones más costosas: si asistió a nuestro Festival de Invierno en diciembre, ¡ayudó a enviar las clases de 4to grado de este año a Coloma!
Suministros para el aula
¿Sabía que Boosters proporciona un cheque de estipendio a cada maestro al comienzo del año escolar para ayudar a comprar útiles? ¡Las carpetas de Bobcat que van a casa con cada estudiante cada año también son posibles gracias a la recaudación de fondos de Boosters!
Asambleas y Programas
Las asambleas a menudo se pagan con fondos de Boosters, desde la asamblea de inclusión de Common Ground Society hasta la demostración de ciclistas BMX. Los programas específicos de nivel de grado también están patrocinados por Boosters, como el programa reciente de Paleotechnics "Ancient Arts and Tech" de sexto grado. Otros programas ayudan a unir a nuestra comunidad de Binkley: sí disfrutó de Coffee with the Principal, ¡su café y donas han sido proporcionados por los fondos de Boosters!
Incentivos para estudiantes
Todos sabemos que a los niños les encanta un buen premio, ¡y muchos de esos premios están financiados por Boosters! Cada mes, un estudiante de cada clase es seleccionado como el Bobcat que mejor personifica el tema del mes. Estos estudiantes reciben un codiciado sombrero Bobcat of the Month. ¡Los estudiantes que dominan sus primeras 100 palabras de vista son recompensados con una camiseta que usan con orgullo! ¡Las clases que llenan sus tarros de boletos como parte del programa PBIS (Intervenciones y apoyos conductuales positivos) de Binkley obtienen recompensas de clase como una fiesta de baile con el director!
Equipo de juegos
¿Has visto los "caminos sensoriales" pintados en el patio de juegos del jardín de infantes y otras áreas alrededor de Binkley? ¿Qué tal la nueva pancarta de "apuntar y jugar" cerca del juguete grande, que ayuda a nuestros estudiantes no verbales y verbales limitados a comunicarse y conectarse con sus compañeros durante el recreo? ¡Estas mejoras en el patio de recreo fueron patrocinadas por Boosters, junto con la nueva piscina de pelotas de Gaga hace unos años!
Eventos comunitarios
Construir una comunidad solidaria y acogedora es una gran parte de la misión de Boosters, y los eventos comunitarios están en el centro de nuestros esfuerzos. Organizamos y organizamos múltiples eventos comunitarios gratuitos durante todo el año escolar para que asistan todas las familias de Bobcat, incluida la popular fiesta de bienvenida, Trunk or Treat y la noche multicultural. También apoyamos los eventos que se llevan a cabo durante el día escolar para incluir a todos los estudiantes, como el Día de Bellas Artes, el Día de Campo y el Campamento Binkley.
Y más
La lista de proyectos y eventos en Binkley que son apoyados por la recaudación de fondos de Boosters es larga, ¡y no podríamos hacer nada sin ustedes! ¡Gracias por tu apoyo!
