Each scholar received an envelope containing a unique set of starting resources. From there, the classroom transformed into a fast-paced marketplace as scholars negotiated, traded, and strategized to build on what they were given.
While the activity challenged their strategic decision-making and negotiation skills in real time, its deeper purpose goes far beyond classroom trading. By experiencing firsthand how varying starting points impact opportunity and leverage, scholars are preparing for a powerful upcoming discussion on generational wealth, economic barriers, and generational poverty.
Hands on learning like this gives our scholars a front-row seat to how real world systems function-fostering critical thinking, empathy, and deep civic understanding.
Important conversations like these help our scholars connect classroom l
GHS Community Connections are spending much of their day at Prospect Cemetery, stepping up and lending a helping hand right here in our community! From cleaning gravestones and picking up litter to helping keep the grounds clean and cared for, our scholars are doing their part to make a difference.
Taking the time to care for places like Prospect Cemetery helps preserve our community’s history while showing respect for those who came before us and helped shape the community we call home today. We’re proud to see our scholars stepping up as role models for their fellow scholars and the greater GESD community! ❤️🤍
The line stretched past the hill, costumes were out in full force, and our GESD Community showed up BIG! From the creatively decorated trunks to the candy, laughs, and Halloween costumes, it was awesome seeing so many families come together for a night of fun.
A huge shoutout to our GHS Key Club for keeping this tradition going and helping it grow bigger and bigger each year! Thank you to our scholars, faculty, staff, volunteers, and community partners who helped make it all happen.
All FIVE of our buildings came together, and the turnout said it all. Thank you to everyone who came out and made this year's Trunk or Treat such a great night! 🐉🐺🎃
🎉 CELEBRATING 30 YEARS OF DEDICATION! ❤️
Please join us in sending a HUGE congratulations to Kingsborough Elementary's very own Donna Stumpf for reaching an incredible milestone-30 years of dedicated service in our GESD cafeterias! 🍎✨
Donna’s 30-year journey across the district is a true testament to her loyalty and care for our scholars:
📍 19 years at Boulevard
📍 3 years at Gloversville High School
📍 8 years at Kingsborough Elementary (2018–present)
(19 + 3 + 8 = 30 amazing years!) 🐾
Even after three decades, Donna takes immense pride in her work every single day-from the early morning setup and meal prep to feeding our scholars. She loves coming in each day for the opportunity to make a scholar smile, whether it's through a quick conversation or a warm hello in the lunch line.
Anyone who has come across Donna in line will tell you she has a way of making every single scholar feel noticed, cared for, and important before they walk away with their tray.
Thank you, Donna, for 30 years of heart, hard work, unwavering commitment, and community excellence. We are so grateful for everything you do to nourish and uplift our scholars! 👏❤️

Scholars in Mr. Muhlberger’s Transportation Systems class put their engineering skills to the ultimate test during their highly anticipated rocket launch project!
The challenge called for serious precision: build a functional rocket, integrate a reliable parachute recovery system, and safely transport a raw "egg-stronaut" passenger up into the air and back down intact. Scholars calculated parachute drag, designed shock-absorbing landers, and fine-tuned their builds through live trial and error to ensure a zero-crack landing. 🥚🪂
Watching their hard work launch skyward and float safely back to Earth was an incredible highlight. Outstanding job by Mr. Muhlberger and these innovative GHS scholars! 🌟
Gloversville City Hall was overflowing with pride last night as our community gathered to celebrate Miss New York’s Teen, Lucy Esler! Mayor Gary J. Antonucci and the Common Council officially recognized the Gloversville High School junior for her incredible accomplishments and for representing our city and state on the national stage at the Miss America’s Teen Competition.
During the presentation, Mayor Antonucci awarded Lucy an official Certificate of Achievement. In an extra special tribute, the City also unveiled commemorative street signs in her honor, which will soon welcome visitors at entrances across Gloversville! 🚗✨
Moments like this showcase the incredible talent, heart, and dedication thriving within our schools. Lucy’s achievements shine a bright light on our city, serving as an inspiration to her fellow scholars and reminding us all of the great things that happen when our community comes together to lift each other up. 🌟🤝❤️
Congratulati
A massive shoutout and thank you to the Gloversville Educational Foundation for their generous donation of hundreds of water bottles and headphones to Boulevard Elementary!
Our scholars are working hard every day to demonstrate positive behavior, and now they have some more awesome rewards to aim for when saving up their PBIS points!
Thank you to the Foundation for always being such an incredible community partner and for continuously supporting our school and scholar initiatives. We are so grateful for your ongoing support! ❤️🐾
Thank you for everything you do, Principal Martin! 🐾✨
