π Ninth Grade Students Explore Local Careers Through Berks Business Tours
On Thursday, our ninth-grade class took part in the Berks Business Education Coalitionβs annual Business Toursβa key experience within the Freshman Leadership Network program.
The Berks Business Education Coalition (BBEC) works to build strong partnerships between local businesses and schools, helping students explore career pathways and develop leadership skills that prepare them for life after graduation. Through programs like the Business Tours, BBEC connects students with real-world learning opportunities and the many industries that drive our region.
Students began the day with an opening session led by a local business representative before traveling to their assigned tour site. Each group visited one of the following Berks County businesses for a behind-the-scenes look at daily operations and career opportunities:
πΉ Cambridge Lee Industries
πΉ East Penn Manufacturing
πΉ Electro-Space Fabricators
πΉ Classic Harley-Davidson
πΉ New Castle Lawn & Landscape
πΉ Muhlenberg Greene Architects
This hands-on experience allowed students to see potential careers in action and learn directly from professionals across a variety of industries.
πΈ Included are photos of our students touring Classic Harley-Davidson.
Weβre grateful to BBEC and all participating businesses for opening their doors and helping our students explore their futures!

πΊπΈ Honoring Our Veterans Across the Daniel Boone Area School District πΊπΈ
The Daniel Boone Area School District joined together this week to honor the veterans in our community through heartfelt celebrations held across all school buildings. Students and staff created meaningful moments of reflection, gratitude, and connection as they recognized the service and sacrifice of the men and women who have served our nation.
At the Intermediate Center, veterans connected to IC students were welcomed for a special program that blended music and student-led tributes. Performances by Intermediate Center singers and the High School Varsity Voices set the tone for the morning, followed by student speakers who shared messages of appreciation. The program concluded with a veteransβ breakfast, offering guests an opportunity to connect with students and staff in a warm, community setting.
Over at the Primary Center, local veteransβincluding guests from Keystone Villaβwere honored through a program coordinated by the encore team. Students proudly sang patriotic selections, showcased their artwork, and presented handmade STEM creations such as flag holders. The event highlighted the creativity and gratitude of even our youngest learners as they celebrated their hometown heroes.
The Middle School also hosted a Veterans Day breakfast, bringing together students, staff, and community service members. The gathering provided a chance for students to hear stories, express their appreciation, and recognize the lasting impact of military service.
Across the district, these events reflected a shared commitment to honoring those who have served. The district extends a special thank you to the High School student ambassadors who supported celebrations throughout the buildings, helping ensure each program was welcoming and memorable for our guests.
Daniel Boone is proud to recognize the veterans within our community and grateful to all who helped make these districtwide celebrations possible. πΊπΈ
