🎃👻 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! 🎃

🎃 Are you ready for Halloween? Our Middle School Technology class is! 👻

Students have been busy designing and building their own wooden Halloween decorations — from concept to final creation. They start with detailed sketches and measurements on paper, then bring their ideas to life using band saws and sanders to cut, shape, and smooth their designs.

Along the way, they’re gaining real-world skills in design thinking, precision measurement, tool safety, and problem solving — all while adding a little spooky spirit to the classroom!

🎃 The High School Latin Club brought ancient history to life with a creative twist! Students turned pumpkins into stunning “ancient vases,” each telling a mythological or historical story. 🏺✨

From gods and heroes to legendary tales, their designs show that Latin is anything but dead!

💡 Innovation in Action! 💡

Thanks to the East Aurora Educational Foundation’s “Utilizing Technology for Innovation and Design Thinking” grant, Mrs. Marcklinger and Mr. Terhune’s LEAP students are diving into creative problem-solving with Ozobots! 🤖

These tiny robots are helping students bring their ideas to life through the design process — from brainstorming and empathy to hands-on experimentation and coding.

We’re so grateful for the EAEF’s continued support of innovative classroom learning that inspires curiosity and critical thinking! 🌟

Some of our student leaders in the High School Unified Club made their way down to Parkdale Elementary yesterday for service learning day to partner with our kindergarten students and teach them about what it means to include. They participated in six stations that taught them about working together, including everyone, and embracing and celebrating differences. The team then left Parkdale and made their way down Main Street to talk to local businesses about the WNY Polar Plunge to advertise for our efforts in raising money for our local Special Olympics when some of our club takes the plunge in December.

In library class, Mrs. Bosela's class read Mr. S by Monica Arnaldo. Afterward, we emailed the author to find out the secret identity of the titular character, Mr. S! The Canadian author/illustrator not only replied, but sent us a cool, handmade sandwich greeting card. If you want to know Mr. S's real name, you'll have to read this book yourself!

💙 More moments from Service Learning Day! Our students continued to show what it means to care for others and give back. At St. Luke’s Mission, they helped prepare food for those in need, and at Knox Farm, they rolled up their sleeves to empty a building and lend a hand.

We’re so proud of their hard work, compassion, and commitment to serving the community. #oneEA
