Welcome to the third grade journey in Room 16 with Mr. B!! You and your child will find all you need to know to have a successful year in Room #16 at Kawana Springs Elementary on this website. 


My name is Mr. Boyce and I have been at Kawana Springs Elementary since 1983. At that time, we were just known as Kawana Elementary School.  Prior to teaching here, I taught at St. John's School in Healdsburg, CA. I've had experience teaching every grade from 1st to 8th grade in my 37 years of teaching. I have taught third grade for the past 27 years because it is my favorite age group of students to work with.  I have a comprehensive program that follows the newly implemented Common Core Standards. With your help and support, I will provide a wonderful and enriched education for your child.  I am really excited about this school year and we have some amazing projects and field trips planned for the year.  I think your child will find this to be a very memorable year!  If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me by email at jgboyce@busd.org or by phone at 545-4283.  It’s always better if we schedule a time to chat if you have several questions or concerns.  

My goal for every child is to participate and be successful in their learning, feel the pride from doing a project or assignment well done and become a motivated learner.  Along the way, I hope your child has fun, makes new friends and becomes more responsible. Our Room 16 slogan is: "Give to the world the BEST you have and the BEST will come back to YOU!!!" 

Enjoy the climb to the top,



Mr. Boyce
