Daniel Boone Area High School is proud to once again partner with Kutztown University through the Early College Academy!
This year, three of our seniors took advantage of an incredible opportunity—attending college classes three days a week while gaining hands-on experience through internships the other two days. Even more impressive? They each earned 12 college credits—the equivalent of an entire semester—before even graduating high school!
We’re excited to celebrate their hard work and achievements:
👏 Jaren Donahue
👏 Gavin Heckman – KU Commit
👏 June Lewiski – KU Commit
Two of these outstanding students will continue their academic journeys at Kutztown University, and we couldn’t be more proud!
Their names will join our past Early College Academy participants on the plaque displayed in the School Counseling Suite—a lasting reminder of their dedication and success.
Join us in congratulating these students on this amazing accomplishment! #BooneProud
