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! ✨

💙✨ Spreading Kindness at the Primary Center!
Students and staff at the Primary Center recently took on the challenge of sharing random acts of kindness throughout the building, and the results were amazing! From kind words to thoughtful gestures, our students showed how small acts can make a big difference.
One fun example comes from Miss Goudie’s class, who created a colorful and creative picture of Mr. Steinman, our Primary Center art teacher, spreading kindness like confetti! 🎨🎉
We are proud of our students for making our school a place where kindness grows every day.

🌱🟢 Learning How to Stay Safe!
Representatives from the Penn State Master Gardeners visited all first grade classrooms at the Primary Center to teach students how to stay safe from harmful substances that may be found at home. As part of the lesson, students learned about the importance of the familiar Mr. Yuk symbol and how it helps remind us to stay away from poisons and unsafe materials.
Thank you to the Master Gardeners for sharing this important safety information with our students in a fun and engaging way!

📚❤️ Celebrating the Joy of Reading at the Primary Center!
Primary Center students had a wonderful time celebrating Read Across America Week with lots of stories, smiles, and special guests. During our annual Elementary Reading Day, students from the high school visited to share their love of reading by reading stories with our younger students.
The library was extra cozy for the occasion, complete with fun reading tents that made story time even more exciting. A big thank you to Primary Center parent Mrs. Kingsbury for helping create this special space for our students!
We love seeing our Blazers come together to share the joy of reading. 💙📖

Our Alumni Spotlight series - created by communications intern Daniel Shank - continues with a story of hard work, purpose, and a commitment to serving others.
After graduating from Daniel Boone Area High School in 1979, Richie Bowden threw himself right into work.
Beginning in Mr. Bowden's early childhood, he would help out in his father’s auto mechanic garage. It was in these moments that Mr. Bowden’s father instilled in him the work ethic that he possesses today.
That way of life stuck with Mr. Bowden. At times, he worked two full-time jobs and another on the weekends, working up to 20 hours a day. Mr. Bowden described it as an “addiction” to making money; working was his fulfillment.
But then, one day, that changed. “God was calling me that I had to go into the community.” At first he was reluctant, but soon he realized: “How much is enough?”
Now, Mr. Bowden is profoundly involved in various community services. Using expertise crafted through decades of work, he helps fix and renovate houses with Mission Trip Birdsboro and Restoring Hope of Berks County. Mission Trip Birdsboro has grown to encompass seven different partnership organizations. Anyone can volunteer to help out, and there is even a prominent youth presence. 🔨
He also helps feed those in need with Hopewell Love Community Services and sings with Threefold Blessings, a traveling praise and worship team where he has used his gifts to honor God almost every Sunday.
Mr. Bowden said his heart was never in school, but it is evident that he possesses the exact skills that schools are designed to teach. Grades alone cannot change the world, but the impact Mr. Bowden has on the community certainly can.
Mr. Bowden also had a few words of advice for current high school students, “Stick with it.”
