Jasmine Boone first started in the world of leadership writing operating manuals and using them to train and teach others in more effective procedures. From there, she moved on to proposal management and executive assistance, where she directed and coordinated meetings with city officials, and the heads of large and small companies to assess their needs.

I am passionate about what I do and am committed to put my heart and soul into our school and community. While in college, I developed a passion for writing and literature: I was Editor-in-Chief of Paradise Valley Community College newspaper, won multiple awards for creative non-fiction, and interned at Arizona Foothills Magazine.

Assistant Principal - Alyssa Graceffa
It is truly an honor to step into this role and join a community filled with passionate educators and determined, high-achieving scholars.
Originally from Rockford, Illinois, I began my educational journey by earning my Bachelor’s degree in Education from Montana State University-Northern in Havre, Montana. I later moved to Arizona, where I taught multiple grade levels in Goodyear while also helping to build a vibrant performing arts program. During that time, I pursued and completed my Master’s degree in Educational Leadership from Grand Canyon University. Outside of school, I love staying active, attending live music events, and spending time with my spirited husky, Sassy. I am a huge Cubs fan and love attending sporting events, as well. I grew up dancing competitively throughout my childhood and also teach classes locally in the valley.
I am absolutely thrilled to join the AMS network and be part of a school culture that values excellence, innovation, and the growth of every scholar. I look forward to building strong relationships with our students, families, and staff as we work together to achieve great things this year.
Here’s to an incredible journey ahead! |

It is with tons of excitement that I write this letter of introduction to you as the Assistant Principal of Academies of Math and Science Camelback for the 2nd year. I am honored to have the opportunity to help lead a school with an amazing group of staff members and a community of persevering scholars.
Before entering the education field, I earned my Bachelor’s of Applied Science, minoring in Child and Family Social Services, from Washington State University. From there, I worked at a therapeutic trauma center as a lead kindergarten teacher and agency developmental tester, developing students’ social emotional competence in order to improve their academic outcomes. I then moved on to become the family support specialist supervisor for Auburn School District’s Head Start program. I have been with the AMS network at the Desert Sky campus as a lead second grade teacher for five years. It is my second year on the Camelback team with all of the amazing staff and students on this campus. In my free time, I love reading books, traveling, videography, trying new restaurants, and spending time with family, friends, and my dog. |
