Reading Under the Stars at Park Terrace last night 🌟📚
A great night filled with free books, crafts, and time together as families-engaging, fun, and all centered around reading. Story time was a highlight, with Superintendent Halloran, Principal Benjamin, Mr. DiNitto, and Boulevard scholar Piper bringing the stories to life.
This event is part of our Gloversville Elementary PTA’s Pick a Reading Partner (PARP) initiative, a month-long push to keep reading a part of the everyday routine.
Just 20 minutes a day-that’s it. It adds up fast, builds stronger readers, and opens doors for our scholars in every classroom. Keep it going 📖

Park Terrace scholars jumped right back into learning this morning, building bee hotels with our school beekeeper, Cindy Elsenbeck 🐝🌼
Using recycled cans and natural materials, scholars created safe nesting spaces for pollinators while learning just how important these small creatures are to our ecosystem. From carefully packing the tubes to understanding how bees use them, it was hands-on, purposeful work from start to finish.
A great way to start the week-with busy hands, curious minds, and a few future homes ready for some very important visitors.

❤️🐥 MAKING A SPLASH FOR A GREAT CAUSE! 🐥❤️
This past month, Park Terrace scholars showed what it means to give back in a BIG way! 🎉
Through our fun and meaningful “Duck Duck Donate” fundraiser, scholars purchased themed rubber ducks for just $1 each — all to support our local community. 🐤✨
Because of their generosity, we are proud to share that we raised $865 for Bleecker Street Church of Christ (Disciples of Christ)! 🙌
🏫 This special donation was presented during our March Park Terrace Pride Assembly this morning, making the moment even more meaningful as we celebrated together as a school community.
📸 We were honored to welcome representatives from the church and present a giant check — a proud moment that truly shows the impact our scholars can make when they come together.
