πŸ’™ Blazers Give Back! πŸ’™

Today, members of the DBAHS Student Government made the rounds to each building across the district to collect donations for our Giving Market β€” and the response from our Blazer community was incredible!

The Giving Market is a district-wide initiative that offers free non-perishable food, personal hygiene products, and other essential items to Boone families and community members β€” no registration, no cost, just support for those who need it.

Thanks to your donations, the shelves are stocked and ready to make a difference. We’re proud of our students for leading this effort and grateful to our entire community for stepping up!

πŸ“… The schedule for the 2026 Giving Market will be announced soon.

πŸ’¬ Interested in supporting the market? Reach out to Ashley Griffith, District Wellness Coordinator, or Lisa Kieke, Community Relations Specialist.

Together, we are building a culture of kindness, compassion, and community β€” one Blazer Moment at a time.

πŸ› οΈ Student Craftsmanship on Display! πŸ› οΈ

Students in Technological Design have been hard at work creating custom wooden trays β€” 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.
