What an incredible Sustainable Ag Friendsgiving Celebration today! 🍽️

A massive thank you to all the faculty and staff who joined us after school in the cafeteria. We loved sharing the bounty of our farm, including one of our impressive 35-pound farm-raised turkeys and nearly a dozen amazing side dishes made from cherished family recipes.

We are so grateful for all the support that allows our agriculture program to grow and thrive. Seeing everyone enjoy the culinary works made by the Sustainable Ag class was the perfect way to say THANK YOU!

🎃👻 Phishing scams are scary! Thankfully, East Aurora has some sharp eyes on our side.

This Halloween, we’re giving a shoutout to Mr. Grisanti, who’s at the top of our leaderboard for phishing training! 🏆 He’s spotted the most fake emails and helped keep our district’s information safe.

Way to go, Mr. Grisanti — proving that not all spooky surprises are worth opening! 💻🔒

For the last few weeks, 8th-grade Technology have been working through the design process on their Halloween Slat Project! They demonstrated awesome hands-on skills in designing, cutting, sanding, and assembling their festive creations.

But the real treat? The students produced 200 extra projects and shared them as gifts with teachers, administrators, and staff across the entire district. Watching our students realize the impact of their hard work and the joy of giving was the perfect, rewarding end to this assignment.

Happy Halloween! 🎃
