Charlie Ballem Builder’s Award - Peter Bolo
Dedication to students, athletes, and the broader community has spanned decades.
Peter has worn many hats over the years: a passionate educator, a dedicated volleyball coach, and a highly respected basketball referee. Through each of these roles, he’s left an enduring impact—teaching not only skills and strategy, but values like discipline, respect, and perseverance.
In the classroom and gymnasium, Peter was known for creating a space where students felt seen and supported. On the volleyball court, he built strong, unified teams that competed with integrity. And as a basketball referee, he earned admiration for his fairness, calm demeanor, and deep knowledge of the game.
What makes Peter truly exceptional is not just his experience, but his character. He never looked for recognition—he simply showed up, gave his best, and made those around him better. His influence can be seen in the lives of countless students, athletes, and colleagues who carry his lessons forward every day.
