She's also taught first grade at the school, as well as first, fourth and sixth grade in other schools in Tennessee and Florida.

A press release from MCS states that in her interview for the Foothills position, Bosco said, "I am a learner, first. I enjoy growing as an educator and leader every day. I believe our greatest heroes are our teachers. It is an honor to be the heart, hands, and feet to support and lead our heroes.”
