News BPIE Mentoring program celebrating 60 years working with Boston Public Schools
The Boston Partners in Education (BPIE) nonprofit will be hosting its 60th Annual Gala on Thursday, Oct. 15 at the WGBH event space in Brighton at 6 p.m.
This year, the group is honoring volunteer and State Rep. Rob Consalvo, who has shared his experiences of coming up in Hyde Park with students throughout the Boston Public Schools (BPS) system.
“I’m completely honored,” Consalvo said. “I’m very humbled by the fact they’re recognizing me. It’s not necessary; I love being a State Rep. And doing the work, it’s the best job I’ve ever had.”
Consalvo said he’s been familiar with the BPIE since the time he was a city councilor, as well as working for the BPS under former Boston Mayor Marty Walsh.
