Jeff Boarman, Associate Principal

Mr. Boarman is thrilled to serve Chesterfield County Public Schools as the Associate Principal of Matoaca Middle School! Over his 20+ years in education, he has been a high school English teacher, overseen operations at the division level, and spent 16 years as an Assistant Principal (most recently at Carter G. Woodson Middle School in Hopewell).

When he’s not at school, you’ll usually find him camping, fishing, or crafting his next groan-worthy dad joke. Stop by his office anytime to chat about student success, or to admire his famous desk rock collection. He promises never to take his job for granite and is ready to help Matoaca rock the school year!
