Today is National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day, and we are incredibly proud to recognize Officer Schultz and Officer Longboat for their unwavering dedication to the East Aurora Union Free School District.
In EA, our SROs are much more than a security presence; they are mentors, educators, and integral members of our school family.
Thank you, Officer Schultz and Officer Longboat, for protecting our hive and helping our students thrive! 💙⚪️

Today our Foreign Language students had a special opportunity to learn beyond the textbook! 🌎
We welcomed a group of future educators from Chili who shared insights about their culture, the pathway to becoming a teacher in their home country, and their experiences learning about American culture and teaching pedagogy.
This meaningful exchange allowed our students to practice authentic language skills while gaining a deeper understanding of global education and cultural perspectives. Experiences like this bring language learning to life and remind us how connected our world truly is.
Thank you to our guests for inspiring our students and sharing your journey with us! #oneEA
We are so proud of all who were involved including lead actors/actresses, featured dancers, ensemble, costume crew, tech crew, band members, and of course the directors!
Congratulations to all!!

Inquiry in action! 🔬✍️
Students in Mr. Padmanabha’s science classes sharpened both their verbal and writing skills as they developed procedures and conducted student-driven inquiry labs.
By asking questions, designing investigations, and communicating their thinking, students are building the skills real scientists use every day. Way to lead the learning! 💙 #oneEA
Did you know a potato can light up a lightbulb? 🥔💡
Our EAMS Science Club students turned into electrical engineers ! They investigated how to use potatoes as an energy source to power mini-LED lights. It was a fantastic hands-on lesson in circuitry, chemical energy, and problem-solving.

Students in Mrs. Brown's Kindergarten class earned a special celebration by collecting compliments for positive behavior in the halls, during specials, and throughout the day.
Best part? They came up with the ideas and voted on the reward—and a Science Day won! 🧪🔬
Students rotated through hands-on stations exploring Rocks & Minerals, Sinking and Floating, Wacky Experiments, and Candy Catapults.
Learning, teamwork, and fun all in one day—well done, students! 💙 #oneEA

In our latest podcast episode, we’re going behind the scenes of this weekend’s highly anticipated musical.

In this episode, you’ll hear:
Student Spotlights: Meet the performers who bring these characters to life.
The Power of Connection: How being part of a cast builds Respectful Relationships and a lifelong sense of belonging.
