Vice President
Elyssa Boseman
My name is Elyssa Boseman, and I am excited to serve as PTO Vice President. I have worked for Cypress Basin Hospice for 17 years and currently serve as Business Office Manager, and I look forward to bringing that nonprofit experience and knowledge to my role on the board. My husband, Cole, and I are both proud Como-Pickton graduates, and now our two sons are active students here as well. We are members of The Way Bible Church, I am an Athletic Booster Club Member, and Cole currently serves as a School Board Trustee. Our Eagle pride runs deep, and we truly love supporting the school and community that mean so much to our family. I am grateful for the opportunity to work alongside others to make a positive impact for our students, staff, and families.
Secretary
Cassi Vanderjagt
My name is Cassi, I’m excited to serve as the PTO Secretary. I’m a registered nurse here at Christus Mother Frances Sulphur Springs, so staying organized and keeping things on track kind of comes with the job. My husband and I have two boys, Conrad and Arie, who keep us busy, and we’re also involved in our family dairy with my in-laws. Our faith is a big part of our lives, and I try to carry that into everything I do, including this role. Between work, kids, and the dairy, life stays pretty full. I’m really glad to be part of this school community and look forward to helping out however I can this year.
Treasurer
Hannah Garrett
My name is Hannah Garrett, and I am grateful for the opportunity to serve as PTO Treasurer. As a parent in the district, I look forward to supporting the students, staff, and school community of Como-Pickton CISD while helping strengthen the connection between home and school. I work in school accountability and data analysis, and I am excited to bring those skills and my attention to detail to this role. I am committed to maintaining transparency and accuracy in all PTO financial processes while supporting initiatives that enhance students’ educational experiences and encourage meaningful family involvement. I also look forward to working with campus leadership and the school board throughout the year to help ensure the PTO makes a positive and meaningful impact in support of our organization’s mission.
