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! 🎉👏❤️🤍
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. ❤️🤍💙

We could not be prouder to see Mrs. VanNostrand recognized as a 2026 Teacher Supply Surprise winner by News Channel 13 and Sunmark Credit Union!
She was awarded an incredible shopping spree at the Clifton Park Walmart to help stock up on resources, and as Mrs. VanNostrand shared: "My scholars will smile a little bigger this year because of you!"
If you know Mrs. VanNostrand, you know the deep heart and dedication she pours into Boulevard every single day. She has a true gift for seeing every scholar as an individual-meeting them right where they are, tailoring her teaching to how they learn best, and ensuring every child gets the high-quality education they deserve.
Thank you to WNYT, Sunmark Credit Union, and Walmart for supporting our educators, and thank you, Mrs. VanNostrand, for representing the absolute best of our GESD Community! 👏❤️

What an incredible afternoon. Today’s 10th Annual GESD Backpack Giveaway completely blew us away-we officially gave out more backpacks today than in any other year of running this event!
Walking around Boulevard Elementary, seeing our scholars getting fresh haircuts, families grabbing food, and our community partners coming together under one roof was a real reminder of why Gloversville is so special. When our families needed a hand, our neighbors, businesses, and staff didn't hesitate to step up and make sure every single child walked away ready to succeed. It takes a true team effort to pull this off, and our entire community showed up with so much heart today.
We want to extend a massive thank you to all the hands on deck, from our tireless volunteers to our dedicated staff, for bringing the energy and making this day run so smoothly.
We are also incredibly grateful to the sponsors who stepped up to make this possible:
🤝 Thank you: Gloversville Little Huskies, Gloversville Educational Foundation, NBT Bank, Target, Alpin Haus, Euphrates, Walmart Distribution Center, First Choice Financial Federal Credit Union, and Miracle-Ear.
