🇺🇸 Honoring Our Boone Veterans 🇺🇸
On Friday, two of our very own, Jason Withers (Director of Facilities) and Matthew Brand (Director of Safety & Security), were celebrated at the Benefit for Berks County Veterans Luncheon, sponsored by Customers Bank and held at the DoubleTree Hotel.

🎶 Shoutout to our High School Concert Choir! 🎶
Last Friday, November 1st, our talented DB singers traveled to Temple University to participate in a high school choral adjudication alongside 14 other groups. Our choir performed beautifully and enjoyed connecting with other student singers and Temple University faculty.
Congratulations to these dedicated musicians on a fantastic performance and an unforgettable experience! 🌟🎤 #BooneProud
Throwback Thursday 📚✨
Step back in time with us to the origins of the Daniel Boone Junior-Senior High School! These classic snapshots capture a newly finished science lab, classroom, auditorium, and gymnasium in our brand-new building circa mid-1960's.
The story behind the school is as memorable as the building itself! The journey started in 1955 with the formation of a jointure between Amity, Union, and Birdsboro. Expansion plans were approved in 1960, and Birdsboro was chosen as the site. Construction kicked off in 1964, overcoming challenges like strikes, a flood, and even a hurricane! Despite these obstacles, our doors opened on September 7, 1966—although some areas like the auditorium, gym, and art and music rooms were still under construction. 🛠️
Finally, in the spring of 1967, the Daniel Boone Junior-Senior High School was dedicated, marking the completion of a vision that shaped our school community. 🏫🌟 #ThrowbackThursday #BooneProud #DanielBooneClassof1967

🚌✨ National Bus Safety Week Tip #5! ✨🚌
It’s our last tip for the week: Red means STOP!
When you see a school bus activate its amber/yellow lights, it’s approaching a stop. Never rush through these lights—students may not always wait for the red lights to activate before crossing. Remember, the bus will not block the intersection.
🚦 Important reminders:
Do not turn left in front of the bus if students are loading on the right; they may be coming from all directions.
Wait until the red lights are OFF before moving your vehicle.
Let’s keep our kids safe on their way to school! Thank you for prioritizing bus safety this week and every day!
