🎓🧱 While many seniors will be celebrating graduation this week, Daniel Boone senior Owen Heimbach has already received his diploma so he can represent our school on a national stage!
Owen is one of five Berks Career & Technology Center students who qualified for the SkillsUSA National Leadership & Skills Conference in Atlanta, Georgia. Due to a scheduling conflict between the national competition and local graduation ceremonies, Owen faced a difficult choice—attend graduation or compete at nationals.
He chose to compete.
During BCTC’s Senior Recognition Ceremony, Owen was presented with his Daniel Boone diploma by Superintendent Tom Voelker, allowing him to be recognized before departing for Atlanta to compete in Masonry.
We are incredibly proud of Owen for this outstanding achievement and for representing Daniel Boone, BCTC, and Berks County on the national level.
Please join us in wishing Owen the very best of luck at SkillsUSA Nationals! #BooneProud

Mr. Bobby has been a familiar and friendly face to generations of students, safely transporting them to and from school while building meaningful connections along the way.
Over the years, Mr. Bobby has made a lasting impact not only on the students who rode his bus each day, but also on the coworkers who had the privilege of working alongside him. His presence, kindness, and steady dedication will be deeply missed by both his students and his Krise family.
When he’s not behind the wheel, Mr. Bobby can usually be found doing what he enjoys most—working on his farm and spending time outdoors.
Thank you, Mr. Bobby, for 25 years of safe travels, warm smiles, and unwavering dedication. Wishing you all the best in your well-deserved retirement! 🚜💙 #BooneProud

One of Doreen’s favorite memories was teaching Kindergarten students to sign "What a Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong and seeing the excitement on their faces when they finally understood a new concept. She shared that working at Boone gave her a greater appreciation for all that teachers do each day.
Doreen hopes to be remembered for the little things—sharing kindness, smiles, and creating positive memories for students. Her career highlight reel would certainly include the smiles and laughter she inspired by using a train whistle or duck call to get students’ attention!
In retirement, Doreen is looking forward to traveling and enjoying the freedom to do what she wants, when she wants.
Thank you, Doreen, for your kindness, dedication, and the joy you brought to our students. Congratulations on your retirement! 🎉 #BooneProud

As part of the 2026 Raisin Kindness Campaign, students challenged themselves to make a positive impact throughout our school and community. From picking up trash and lending a helping hand without being asked, to creating a free bookshelf in the Intermediate Center lobby, these students embraced every opportunity to spread kindness.
One of their favorite projects was hiding "Kern's Critters" throughout the school for students and staff to discover and return to the classroom for a prize, bringing smiles and excitement to everyone involved!
Their efforts did not go unnoticed. Mrs. Kern's class was named the "Overall Kindest Class of the Season" and celebrated their achievement with a special ice cream truck party from Sweet Ride! 🍦🎉
We are so proud of these students for demonstrating that even the smallest acts of kindness can make a big difference. Congratulations, Mrs. Kern's class! #BooneProud







A HUGE thank you to seniors Karisma Illigasch, Paige Link, Samuel Tighe, Chase Yenser, and James Jones, along with their Blazer Media teacher, Mr. Matt Palmer, for all of their hard work and dedication throughout this project.

As we near the end of the school year, families are asked to please check their student’s school lunch account to make sure all balances are paid in full.

If you have questions about your balance, please contact our Assistant Business Manager, Nicholas Gamble at nicholas.gamble@dboone.org
Thank you for your attention to this important end-of-year reminder!

Mrs. Seifert’s class and Mrs. Smith’s class teamed up as reading buddies this year, getting together at least once a month to read stories and complete fun crafts together. The friendships and connections they built throughout the year have been so meaningful, and the students always love seeing their buddies in the hallways and at other school events.
What a wonderful way to build confidence, friendships, and a love of reading! #BooneProud





As we approach the end of the school year, all students are reminded to please return any library books before the last day of school. Returning books on time helps make sure all materials are accounted for and ready for students next year.
If you are unsure whether you still have a book checked out, please stop by the library and our staff will be happy to help. Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our school libraries organized and ready for learning!

Using hardwoods like walnut, cherry, maple, ash, purpleheart, poplar, and oak, students designed, shaped, and crafted boards that reflect their own creativity and personality.
Functional, beautiful, and completely one-of-a-kind—just like our students. 👏

During her time at Boone, Mrs. Raudenbush taught 8th, 7th, 6th, and 5th grade Math, making a lasting impact on countless students both inside and outside the classroom. One of her favorite memories was decorating and chaperoning the 8th grade dances, where she loved watching students laugh, dance, and make unforgettable memories together with their friends.
Mrs. Raudenbush shared that her years at Boone helped shape her into a more patient, compassionate, and dedicated person. She hopes students remember that they were always valued, supported, and encouraged, and that their success truly mattered. She also hopes colleagues remember her as someone dependable, supportive, and always willing to work together to create the best experiences possible for students.
When reflecting on her “highlight reel,” Mrs. Raudenbush says it would include the smiles on students’ faces, greetings from current students and graduates, the friendships she has built over the years, and the many meaningful experiences shared with staff, students, and families throughout the Boone community.
As she begins retirement, Mrs. Raudenbush is looking forward to traveling the world, experiencing new cultures, trying different foods, and creating lasting memories through new adventures.
Thank you, Mrs. Raudenbush, for your kindness, patience, dedication, and the positive impact you have made on so many lives over the past 19 years. Congratulations on your retirement! 💙 #BooneProud
