From Mr. Robinson

Dear Boulevard Families,

Thanks to those of you who assisted with this past week’s Garden Clean Up! The gardens look great, as
do the new mums that now welcome one and all!

Now that the Fall temperatures have caught up with us, please ensure that the children are dressed  appropriately for the cooler weather. Unless it is raining, students will go outside daily for recess.

Join us tonight for the PTO Pumpkin and Baked Goods sale starting at the close of school today. It's sure to be fun!

Have a wonderful weekend!
Neal Robinson

The Pumpkin + Bake Sale is today after school! Get your Halloween pumpkins this year from the Boulevard Pumpkin and Bake Sale! Join us TODAY, October 14, from 3:00-5:00pm on the lawn. Enjoy lemonade, cookies, and pizza by the slice with your fellow Boulevard families while you choose your perfect pumpkin to spook your trick-or-treaters. You will be supporting the Boulevard PTO. 

October PTO Meeting

Please join us for the October PTO meeting on October 26, 2016 from 7:00-8:00 in Room 9 (a kindergarten room on the first floor).  A representative from the Board of Education will attend the meeting to provide an update on the District’s Facilities Planning discussions, including the Middle School options, and to answer any questions that you may have.  We will also discuss upcoming PTO events.  As always, child care will be provided.  Please feel free to email or call us with any comments or suggestions.

Socktober Total To-Date: 125 new pairs!

Thank you to all who have donated so far! We're off to a good start and closer to reaching our goal with 125 new pairs of socks collected to-date.

Please b ring in new socks for men, women, and children now through October 31. We will donate them to a local homeless organization. 

Help us beat last year's total as we strive for a goal of 700 new pairs of socks this year. Last year we donated 633 pairs! Bring your donation to the box outside the office, or send them to school with your child.
