First Choice Financial Federal Credit Union is back in our schools with their Star Banking program, teaching scholars the value of saving and how to read account statements. To kick things off, First Choice generously provides a $5 deposit to help every participating scholar start their account!
They visited Boulevard today to present to our 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders-and even dropped off donated backpacks and school supplies for our scholars. Thank you, First Choice Financial FCU, for investing in our scholars' futures! ❤️🤍
We are so proud of these 4th grade scholars who have already earned PBIS Golden Tickets for being respectful, responsible, and safe throughout our community! 🎟️✨❤️
A huge shoutout to our amazing community partners for recognizing and celebrating our scholars when they catch them practicing their 3 B’s beyond the school walls. We love seeing our Boulevard scholars set such an incredible example everywhere they go-keep up the amazing work! 🎉👏❤️🤍
Happy Constitution Day!

Last night, GHS hosted a wonderful Open House, bringing our families, educators, and staff together under one roof to collaborate and map out the exciting year ahead. Thank you to everyone who dropped by to chat with teachers, tour our facilities, and support our scholar's success. We are so excited for everything this school year has in store for our entire community! 📸❤️
Today, members of the Gloversville Middle School Junior National Honor Society as well as Huskies Football captain Charles Pettit attended proceedings at the county courthouse regarding the proposed transfer station near our middle and high school campus. Joined by Principal Heiser, Superintendent Halloran, and Assistant Superintendent Wojeski, our scholars formally addressed county officials to share their concerns about the project's proximity to our school grounds.
Civic engagement is a key component of leadership. Seeing our middle school scholars prepare their statements, step up to the microphone, and directly participate in local governance is a strong reminder of the importance of community advocacy. Their thoughtful preparation and poise reflected the best of our district.
Stay Tuned:
Photos from today’s proceedings are included above. We will also share a behind-the-scenes video later this week documenting our scholars' prepar

Today, the Gloversville Educational School District community pauses to remember and honor the lives lost on September 11, 2001.
On this 25th anniversary, we reflect on the courage of the first responders, the resilience of our nation, and the strength found in unity. May we continue to teach our scholars the values of compassion, service, and community that arose from that solemn day.
We will never forget. ❤️🤍💙

Another Gloversville scholar, Samantha Hally, is also participating in the Miss America Organization this week!
Sami has been involved in the program for several years as Lucille Esler’s “Little Sister.” Together, Sami and Lucy have dedicated countess hours to our community-packing home care bags at Mountain Valley Hospice, making and delivering Valentine's gifts to local nursing homes, hosting Sensory Softball and Sensory Skate events, and volunteering with The Cubby Faville Memorial Fund by delivering books to GESD elementary scholars and helping at their annual golf tournament. Beyond these events, Sami consistently spreads joy across our community with small tokens of kindness for local children.
While in Florida this week, Sami is taking part in the Miss America’s Little Sisters program-a non-competitive mentoring experience designed to inspire confidence, kindness, leadership, and healthy living in young girls across the country. In addition to cheering on her mentor and role model, Lucy, Sami will be walking the red carpet, meeting titleholders, taking the Miss America stage, and connecting with a nationwide sisterhood dedicated to empowering the next generation! ❤️
