All In The Campaign for Blair Academy 2018-2025
Blair Community Is ‘All In’ for Day of Service
Ashley Taube

Last Friday, the entire Blair community set aside their daily routines to unite in volunteerism during our annual Day of Service. Whether on campus or out in the broader community, students, faculty and staff came together with purpose—each contributing to make a meaningful impact. Below, you’ll find a video created by Video and Marketing Specialist CJ Palanca, capturing the spirit of the day. The video also pays tribute to history teacher and Day of Service coordinator Joanne Brandwood, honoring her lasting contributions as she prepares to retire this year. Thank you, Mrs. Brandwood, for all you’ve done for our community.
