Eastern Local 3rd graders recently participated in an engaging virtual field trip with Professor Sparks! During the session, students learned what fires need to burn and explored the basics of a chemical reaction through interactive demonstrations and age-appropriate explanations. This experience supports STEM education by helping students ask questions, make observations, and understand how science applies to the real world and future careers. Early exposure to hands-on science also connects to our district’s Find Your E focus—helping students begin to see pathways toward being Enrolled in further education, Enlisted in service, or Employed in future careers. By building curiosity and problem-solving skills at a young age, experiences like this lay the foundation for students to envision successful futures and discover where their interests may lead.

Due to the inclement weather forecast for tomorrow evening, the Eastern Local Drama club has postponed the performance of a Dickens Christmas Carol to this Wednesday, December 17th at 7:30. Doors will open at 7. Please come support one of our newest student clubs!

Game Day!

Eastern students have been doing their part to help others by sponsoring a Cereal Drive for the Meigs Food Pantry and local families in need. How it works: Each class is collecting cereal donations, and the class that brings in the most will earn an ice cream party. Final Day to Donate: Friday, December 12 If you would like to help out, please send in a box of cereal with your student by Friday. Every donation makes a difference for families in our community. Thank you for supporting our students as they learn the importance of giving back.

A message from the Washington County Career Center: We hit the road yesterday and made a special stop at Eastern Local School District to surprise Makenzie and let her know she was an event prize winner of a Career Center Medical Kit — complete with a stethoscope and all the essentials to kick-start a future in healthcare! And what was Makenzie’s favorite part of Discover Day? Surgical Technologist! Makenzie, congratulations! We can’t wait to see where your healthcare journey takes you! Thank you for attending Discover Day! Medical Careers. Just another example of an Eastern Eagle working on finding her"E".

The Lady Eagles pick up a win tonight over Federal Hocking! Go Eagles!
