East Central

This summer has been busy from summer athletics, to FFA leadership retreats, FCCLA National Conference, drama presentations, and marching band preparations for the 24-25 school year. Our 4th quarter Honor Roll numbers were outstanding with 54% of our student body earning all As and Bs and 31% earning all As! That success coupled everyone's efforts this summer bring a continuing expectation for success this fall and throughout the school year. EC remains a school...family in which we can all take great pride. Our mission continues to be guided by the same principles I came here with seven years ago…to make connections, to provide the best opportunities for our students, and perhaps most importantly, to offer a safe and secure school environment where your child/student can grow and thrive as an academic and as a person.

It is essential as we continue the great work East Central has become known for that we keep our focus on consistent and clear communication between students, staff, and community regarding mission, vision, successes, hopes, and desires. We must also continue our attention to best-practices and alignment across content areas to ensure continued academic success and even moreso, student growth and improvement. Please know how thankful I am to be here with your student(s), this staff, and this community. I take great pride in those words we utter so frequently and hope you do as well...WE ARE...

College Application Week is part of College GO! And is a national initiative of the American College Application Campaign (ACAC). The goal is to help high school seniors navigate the college admissions process and ensure each student submits at least one admissions application. Many Indiana universities join in the celebration by taking away their college application fees for a week or longer so that students can apply for free. Be sure to go to learnmoreindiana.org to access college and higher education resources in the state of Indiana. This website connects students, families, and educators to college resources and information, financial aid, and the 21st Century Scholarship.

Welcome Back!

Key items per grade:

Seniors:

Parents are encouraged to join the Senior Class of 2025 Google Classroom with code 3yhuf3r.

Graduation details, scholarship, and important senior information will be emailed to students and posted to this classroom.

ECHS will be holding our Financial Aid Night on December 18th from 6:30- 8:00 pm in the Performing Arts Center. We will have our representative from INvested who will do an overview on how to complete the parent and student sections of the FAFSA for the class of 2024.At this event we will also have staff from INvestED here to help parents and students complete the FAFSA.

Seniors are also allowed to have two college visit days to explore or finalize colleges of choice. Fall break also serves as a great opportunity to visit colleges that are still in session without missing classes at ECHS. Several college representatives have met with seniors who have voiced interest and more are scheduled to arrive.

Seniors who are undecided about what to study after high school are encouraged to connect with Ivy Tech Community College’s Associate Accelerated Program (ASAP). This program helps high school graduates earn an associate degree in just 11 months and prepares them to transfer to a four-year college to earn their bachelor's degree. Contact Wendi Karle at wkarle@sunmandearborn.k12.in.us for more information.

Juniors:

The PSAT (10/23) digital test will be available to the Juniors during the school day. The PSAT is a practice test for the SAT and a qualifier for the National Merit Scholarship.

SAT School Day: The Digital SAT is a required test for all Juniors in the state of Indiana. The SAT will be given during the school day on March 5th. This test is free and used by the state for school accountability. The benefit of the test is that students will be able to use this score report for college applications. More information will be provided as the March date approaches.

Sophomore and Freshman:

These students should focus on their grades to build a strong transcript which will enable the most opportunities for them. Sophomores will take the digital PSAT on October 23rd during the school year.

Advanced Fashion and Textiles Classes - The Advanced Fashion Classes have research trends in fashion. They have also developed mood boards and sketched garments that were influenced by their mood boards. Lastly they practiced draping fabrics and designing a garment using our new ½ scale dress forms.

Advanced Child Development - As a class we discussed why it is important to study child development. We reminisced about our own childhoods and shared some memories each of us had. At the end of the unit, after the quiz, students fingerpainted to reflect on their youth.

Education Pathways I & II - The ‘cadet’ teachers have now had the opportunity to investigate the characteristics that they find important in a teacher and to share why they want to be a teacher. They have also had the last 2 weeks to begin shadowing in the classrooms at the elementary and middle schools. The cadet teachers are already experiencing a lot of opportunities.

Fashion and Textiles 1 - Students have recently finished exploring different influences on their personal clothing choices. We are examining a variety of sewing tools and ways to stay safe while working on sewing projects. Students were able to use creative and critical thinking skills during a classroom breakout activity to help them review sewing safety and equipment. Students also received information on the supplies that they need for their PJ pants project which we will be starting on at the end of September. They are very excited to start working with the sewing machines.

Adv. Nutrition and Wellness 1 - Students in Adv. Nutrition and Wellness 1 are investigating foodborne illnesses and identifying ways to safely handle food. We have reviewed a variety of safety tips and even re-examined basic handwashing techniques.

Intro to Culinary Arts & Hospitality

Students in Intro to Culinary Arts began the school year by learning about Food Safety & Sanitation. They learned about the most common causes & symptoms of foodborne illness and how they could prevent them by applying their knowledge of the 4 C’s (Clean, Combat Cross Contamination, Cook, & Chill) of Food Safety. Students got to experience a “Food Science” experiment, testing bacteria growth at room temperature versus refrigerated temperature. Students learned bacteria grow fastest at room temperature aka- “Temperature Danger Zone!” Students demonstrated their knowledge of food safety through a culinary lab making “Chicken Stir Fry”. In September students will begin learning about “Preventing Accidents in the Kitchen” then onto “Proper Measuring Techniques”.

ProStart 1: Culinary Arts & Hospitality

Students in ProStart 1 began the year learning about the Hospitality & Foodservice Industry. Students have had the opportunity to evaluate the various parts of the foodservice industry including the commercial versus noncommercial segments. They also learned about the various segments of the hospitality industry including travel, tourism, foodservice, lodging & event management. Students learned the travel & tourism industry is a huge part of Culinary/Hospitality! Students began their experience in the culinary lab with practicing “Mise en Place” and measuring. They continued their practices in the lab through making a “Pasta Carbonara” recipe from Carnival Cruise Lines. Students will be working on the food safety ServSafe Certification from the National Restaurant Association over the next several months.

ProStart 2: Advanced Culinary Arts

Students in ProStart 2 began the year with learning about Stocks, Sauces, and Soups per their Ivy Tech Course. In the lab setting they created chicken stock which they will use to turn into delicious sauces and soups soon!

The art department welcomes everyone back and kick starts the year with awesome students and art projects! Not only are ECHS students learning great things in their fine arts classes each day, they are having fun doing it!

Digital Design - Shun Kurumado

Have you realized how AI is affecting our lives? Photoshop now has a really amazing tool called Generative Fill. This tool has been available for the last few years, and our art department now has this tool for all the art students. Using this tool, you can alter photos in many different ways. In our Digital Design classes, students started using the tool for their lessons and projects, and they are excited about it. In addition to the conventional tools in Photoshop, I am excited to see what the students could do with the new tool to make the digital art making process more interactive and innovative!

2-D Art Class- Ms. Mueller

Students in Intro to 2D Art began the year learning about the elements of Line, Shape, and Space as well as Notan Art. Utilizing those elements and ideas they created visually interesting graphical patterns and designs while incorporating a balance between light and dark, or positive and negative space. Many enjoyed the ability to doodle while others were challenged to be creative while maintaining craftsmanship.

In Mrs. In Gulasy's digital photography class, students are learning about the exposure triangle. Comparing the effect of different aperture, ISO, and shutter speed settings. These concepts aren’t always easy to teach. Students need to know what the words mean, how to control them on their camera, and why they matter. Students had the opportunity to break out into groups and take a series of photos in different aperture settings and observe how the focal length changes with each setting.

Last year, Mrs. Gulasy’s photography students participated in an art contest implemented by Prosecutor Lynn Deddens to help beautify the hallways of the Dearborn County Courthouse. Dearborn County Prosecutor Lynn Deddens, recently recognized 12 East Central High School students for their photography which was chosen for the Dearborn County Courthouse expansion.

The students whose art was selected met with Prosecutor Deddens, were given a color copy of their photography and received $50.00 each in prize money. Over the summer, their artwork was professionally framed up with a plaque citing their name and the year their photography was created. In all, there are 25 framed artworks from East Central High School in the new expansion!

Matt Lyon - mslyon@sunmandearborn.k12.in.us

Señor Lyon’s Spanish classes and Cade really enjoyed getting to know one another by using previously learned Spanish to do a scavenger hunt. They had to find students who drive a car to school, have certain pets, multiple siblings, and more by asking and answering questions in Spanish. It was an exciting way to ease back into Spanish after a long summer break.

The math department would like to highlight the Algebra 1 classes as well as our new Algebra 1 teacher, Mr. Clay Muncy. Mr. Muncy is an alumni of East Central High School, graduating in 2017. He attended the University of Cincinnati where he studied Middle Childhood Education and Psychology. He previously taught at Greensburg Middle School for 2 school years in a 6th and 7th grade math class. Outside of the classroom you can find Clay coaching soccer. This will be his 3rd season as the Head JV Boys Soccer Coach and a Varsity Assistant here at East Central High School where he hopes to lead the boys to a championship this season!

Algebra 1 classes have been working diligently on simplifying non-perfect square roots, evaluating expressions, combining like terms while using multiple operations. Students are completing the order of operations, using the distributive property.

Bill Owen - bowen@sunmandearborn.k12.in.us

In Mr. Stonefield’s Economics classes: "So far this school year, we have explored essential

concepts such as scarcity, opportunity cost, and the critical process of weighing benefits against

costs in decision-making. We have also examined the role of the factors of production—land,

labor, capital, and entrepreneurship—in the creation of goods and services. Next week, we will

begin comparing and contrasting the four primary economic systems and the diverse economic

goals that influence a society’s choice of system."

In Mr. Owen’s American History classes, students are becoming familiarized with the

course’s notetaking and guided reading methods. We have concluded our study of early

Colonial America, and are moving into the Revolutionary War era. Students have completed

the applications requirements for Ivy Tech Dual Credit.

In European History, we have just concluded our study of Medieval Europe and the Italian,

Northern, English, and German versions of the Renaissance. We will be taking our first unit

exam this week. We have also signed up with the College Board and students are preparing to

begin studying for the AP exam in May.
