From Mr. Robinson

Dear Boulevard Families,

Thank you to all who came out in support of last week’s PTO Pumpkin and Baked Goods sale! The  weather was beautiful, the affair was well attended and everyone had a good time. I would like to  extend a special thank you to Barbara Brown, Laurie Brem and Erika Lopresti for organizing this year’s  event.

Fall Conferences are scheduled for Monday, November 7 and Tuesday, November 8. If you have yet to  schedule a conference with your child’s teacher, please do so at your earliest convenience. Our goal is  meet with every family.

Thank you to the families that have sent in socks for our Socktober Drive. We are at 272 of our 700 goal.  Keep sending in your new socks for men, women, and children so that we can help the homeless.

Thank you and have a spectacular weekend!
Neal Robinson

THANK YOU: Pumpkin + Bake Sale
THANK YOU to all of the generous families who bought pumpkins, pizza, candy, and baked goods at the Pumpkin and Bake Sale this year!  We had a great turnout!

A special thanks to the volunteers who helped with the event, and especially to the families who made the delicious baked goods! Without your help, it wouldn't have been such a success.

We hope to see you all again next year!
Socktober Total To-Date:
272 new pairs
Thank you to all who have donated so far! We're at 272 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.
