Boulevard Principal  Thank you, Boulevard Families! Due to your generous and caring spirits, we once again met our goal for the annual Socktober sock drive! During the month of October, students brought in more than 500 pairs of new socks to be donated for people who are in need of them in our area. I would also like to thank Boulevard parent Erin Zelin for organizing and facilitating this year’s drive and Boulevard’s Library Technician Adrienne Paine for her ongoing support of the drive during our daily morning announcements. Thanks again and have a wonderful weekend! Neal Robinson
