The Gloversville Enlarged School District is coming together to help local families enjoy a warm Thanksgiving meal. Our Food Drive is a chance for students, staff, and families to lend a helping hand and make a real difference this season.
You can start gathering items like boxed stuffing, instant mashed potatoes, canned vegetables, cranberry sauce, dessert mixes, canned pie filling, and yams. 🧡
📦 Donations can be dropped off with the building secretaries at any GESD school through November 18 — Gloversville High School, Gloversville Middle School, Boulevard Elementary, Park Terrace Elementary, and Kingsborough Elementary.
Together, we can make this Thanksgiving a little brighter for families in our community.

The weather may have moved us inside, but the spirit of the night shined just as bright. Between Literacy Under the Lights and the Little Huskies Trunk or Treat, the gym was filled with energy, smiles, and community pride.
A huge thank you to our Football Team and Girls Soccer scholar-athletes for taking the time to be part of this event — reading with our youngest GESD scholars and making the night so special for everyone involved.
And an extra special thank you to Ms. Mott and Ms. Sterling and their talented middle school music students, who volunteered their time and talent to fill the gym with incredible music. 🎶 You truly brought the event to life.
We’re so grateful to everyone who came out and helped make the first-ever Literacy Under the Lights one to remember. We can’t wait for next year!
