LAST DAY of Spring Break!  See you back in school tomorrow, Tuesday, April 7! On a pale yellow background with butterflies, daisies and dandelions.

Even though school isn’t in session today, we’re celebrating School Librarian Appreciation Day! 📚💙

Our school librarians do so much more than check out books. They spark curiosity, foster a love of reading, guide research, support classroom learning, and help students discover new worlds — one page at a time. From recommending the perfect book to teaching essential information literacy skills, they empower our students to think critically and dream big.

Thank you for all you do for our students! ✨

Disability Awareness Week at the Middle School 💙

In recognition of Disability Awareness Week, our middle school students participated in a meaningful building-wide activity. Each student colored a paper sock, which are now proudly displayed on bulletin boards and throughout the hallways as a symbol of inclusion, acceptance, and understanding.

The sock display represents the idea that while everyone is different, each person plays an important part in making our school community strong. We are proud of our students for taking part in this activity and helping to promote kindness, respect, and awareness for all.

Stay safe while riding! 🚲🛴

With the increased use of e-bikes and scooters, it’s important for students and families to review basic safety guidelines before heading out. Please take a moment to look over the E-Bikes & Scooters Safety Guidelines poster to make sure everyone understands the rules for safe and responsible riding in our community.

Wearing a helmet, following traffic laws, and riding with awareness can help prevent accidents and keep everyone safe. Thank you for helping us promote safe habits both in school and around town.

Poster titled “E-Bikes & Scooters Safety Guidelines” with the slogan “Ride Smart. Ride Safe. Ride Respectfully.” The poster lists safety rules for students using electric bikes and scooters. Rules include obeying traffic laws, wearing a helmet if under 16, riding in bike lanes instead of sidewalks, and riding only one person per bike or scooter. Safety tips include wearing bright clothing, staying alert, checking brakes and tires, and slowing down in school zones. On school grounds, students should walk their bikes or scooters, avoid riding through parking lots or sidewalks, and use bike racks to secure equipment. The poster ends with the message that safety is everyone’s responsibility and includes the Daniel Boone logo and the phrase “Be safe. Be smart. Be Boone Proud.”
