Wearing Yellow for Childhood Cancer Awareness 💛✨
Today, Boulevard Elementary wore yellow in recognition of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. Every yellow shirt, ribbon, and accessory represents the brave children and families affected by pediatric cancer. Each year, children are diagnosed and begin a difficult fight that no child should ever have to face.
This cause is especially meaningful to Boulevard’s own Ms. Brennan and her family because of her daughter, Ella, who was diagnosed with pediatric cancer last November. Since that moment, childhood cancer has taken on a whole new meaning for them. They have experienced firsthand the fear, uncertainty, strength, and courage that come with a diagnosis like this. Ella has shown everyone what true bravery looks like, and she inspires our entire school community every single day.
By wearing yellow today, Boulevard is showing Ella and every child and family affected by childhood cancer that they are seen, supported, and never alone. We wear yellow to honor the children who are fighting, remember those we have lost, and celebrate the strength and courage of childhood cancer survivors.
Together, we wear yellow. Together, we raise awareness. Together, we stand with Ella and every child fighting cancer! 💛❤️🤍
From course selection and college/career planning to personal guidance, financial aid, and post-high school pathways, this passionate group works side-by-side every day to champion our GHS scholars. Always welcoming and ready with an open door, they are dedicated to guiding, supporting, and advocating for our school community every step of the way.
