✨ A Lasting Tribute ✨
Today, a memorial bench was installed by the flag pole in front of Southern Boone Primary School in memory of Crystal Branch — a beloved long-time teacher, coach, and school board member.
This bench will serve as a place of reflection and a reminder of the lasting impact Coach Branch had on generations of Southern Boone students, staff and families. 🦅❤️🖤

Work continues on the construction project at Southern Boone High School.
The foundation for the new addition has been poured, and concrete block walls are now going up. The new concrete parking lot between the high school and outdoor stadium is finished and looking great, while roof replacement work on the high school’s English wing is underway.
The addition will feature a state-of-the-art vocational and agriculture department with two classrooms, lab space, and a shop. It will also include two new art classrooms and a family and consumer science classroom to better serve our growing student population.
These improvements are made possible through the $11.6 million No Tax Rate Increase Bond Issue, approved by voters in April 2024. We are excited to see these projects taking shape and look forward to the positive impact they will have on our students and community.
Additional information about the project is available at sbschools.us/future.
