🎳 History Made! 🎳
Congratulations to Senior Andrew Groller, who set the house record in his match against Hamburg on Friday at State Street Lanes by rolling the alley’s first-ever 300 game!
As if that wasn’t impressive enough, Andrew also earned a year of free bowling for his perfect game. What an incredible achievement!
Way to go, Andrew—we’re so proud! 👏🔥

Daniel Boone Area School District will operate on a 2-hour delay schedule tomorrow, December 15th (Monday). While our local townships have done a tremendous job clearing the roads, we are seeing a considerable amount of drifting snow from the wind. The delay will allow for more time to clear the roads and additional daylight for safer travel.
Be safe and stay warm!
Be safe and stay warm!

🛠️ Student Craftsmanship on Display! 🛠️
Students in Technological Design have been hard at work creating custom wooden trays — and the creativity has been amazing! Each student selected their own wood species and designed a unique pattern for the tray bottom, making every piece truly one-of-a-kind.
While the trays aren’t fully finished just yet, they’re only a few final steps away from completing a project unlike anything done in our high school woodshop in nearly 20 years!
The engagement and excitement in the room have been incredible. Students are proud of their craftsmanship, and the results speak for themselves. A huge thank you to the Blazer Education Foundation for helping fund the wood materials that made this project possible.
Interested in projects like this? Students can sign up for Technological Design next school year to be part of more hands-on, creative builds just like this one.

You may remember Jameson from the Intermediate Center — our young Blazer who made headlines after giving up the baseball he caught at a game to an 80-year-old woman celebrating her birthday. His act of kindness touched hearts across the country.
This past Saturday, Jameson was invited to St. Louis as an honoree at the 2025 Musial Awards. Named for Baseball Hall of Famer Stan Musial, these awards celebrate the greatest moments of sportsmanship and the people who embody true class and character.
Jameson received his Musial Award from Al “The Mad Hungarian” Hrabosky — former MLB pitcher and broadcaster — and Al is even sending him a signed Stan Musial ball from his own personal collection.
The good you put out into the world always has a way of coming back to you. We are so incredibly proud of you, Jameson! Keep being you! 💙⚾️ #BooneProud
