Our hearts go out to the EASD families and community members impacted by today's fire at Martin's Country Market. We are grateful to the hundreds of firefighters and emergency personnel - many who speak regularly in our classrooms - for the bravery and grit they showed today. We support a resilient Mountaineer community and believe in the strength and empathy that will prevail.

Today was the Lancaster-Lebanon K’Nex Challenge. Our EIS team FINISHED FIRST with their high-tech Trash Picker Upper to help combat litter on farm fields. This win now qualifies them for the state competition. Congrats Anthony, Audrey, Joshua & Lucinda! GO MOUNTS!

Our Mountaineers created hundreds of valentines (500 from EMS alone) as part of the Blue Ridge Touch a Heart initiative. Students’ encouraging messages will be delivered to local nursing home residents and hospital patients, as well as Veterans and soldiers.

The softball turf is rolling out! Plus! Look at all the progress on the new concession/bathroom building! Learn more and see pictures of the project since construction began in August - https://www.easdpa.org/o/easd/page/athletic-fields-project

We love hearing from our students! Our Student Engagement Facilitators' ongoing efforts to increase student voice, engagement, and belonging recently included group discussions to learn what is going well and what more can be done to help students feel successful now and in the future.

Today five teams - out of 39 - presented K'Nex concepts to a panel of judges to determine who will move on in the competition. From predator detection, trash collection & more, students embodied #EASDLifeReady traits to build prototypes to positively impact the farming industry.
