Daniel Boone Area Middle School

Our Buddy Breakfast on Saturday was so much fun! 🥞🎄

Hosted by our amazing Blazer Buddies, families enjoyed yummy pancakes and sausage, decorated cookies with the German Club, wrote letters to Santa with SADD/DBTI, created crafts with the Interact and Ecology Clubs, made slime with our Unified Ambassadors, and even snapped photos with Santa thanks to our Blazer Media team! 📸🎅

What a fantastic morning of smiles, teamwork, and holiday cheer. Best of all, all proceeds were donated to our Giving Market, which provides free food, clothing, and personal care items for our Boone families and community.

‼️ Our next Giving Market is TONIGHT, 12/22, at the high school from 4 PM - 6 PM. Enter through Door #10. We hope to see you there!

💙 Blazers Give Back! 💙

Today, members of the DBAHS Student Government made the rounds to each building across the district to collect donations for our Giving Market — 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 — 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!

📅 The schedule for the 2026 Giving Market will be announced soon.

💬 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 — one Blazer Moment at a time.

Students selected four clubs that interested them and rotated through each one, exploring new activities, collaborating with classmates, and making meaningful connections.
We’re proud of the positivity and teamwork they showed throughout the day! 💙
