It has been a busy and exciting week at Boone CSD as we prepare for the first day of school! 🎒

Staff worked together to review safety protocols, ensuring we are ready to welcome students back with care and confidence. Middle school and high school orientations gave students the opportunity to get familiar with their schedules, classrooms, and teachers before day one. Teachers across the district also came together for team planning to set goals, share ideas, and prepare for a successful year ahead.

To top it off, award-winning educator and leader Hamish Brewer inspired all staff with a powerful message about teaching with passion and purpose.

We are ready for a great 2025-26 school year. See you next week, Toreadors! ✨
