East Central

eNewsletter September 2021

Notes from the Principal

It's been a great start through the first midterm. From the building project to limited protocols and what remain terrific numbers relating to COVID or lack thereof. School this year continues to feel normal in so many ways. That remains our mission this year...to keep things as normal as possible.


In Academics, the return to normal classroom settings and collaborative activities have positively influenced teaching and learning through these first five week. Whatever learning losses may have occurred during the spring of 2020 and through last year are quickly being addressed by teachers and students who are again fully engaged in the instructional process.


In Athletics, Fall Sports are off to some great starts on the soccer fields, on the courts. Both boys and girls soccer are having tremendous seasons, cross country has some of the top runners in the area, tennis has been tearing it up on the courts, and football started their season 3-1 with a tough loss to Moeller but three very convincing wins over some quality opponents. Thanks to Don Stonefield, Athletic Director, and all of our fall coaches for a successful return to normal...crowds and competition. It's been a fun fall sports season so far!


A few weeks ago, we were all struck by the tragedy at Kabul airport. It certainly hit EC and our community hard as one of our own, Cpl Kelsee Lainhart, was one of the service members severely injured in the blast. Thankfully, she was successfully transported to Germany and then back to the States where she is being cared for at Walter Reed Medical Center

8901 Rockville Pike, Bethesda, MD 20814. We have been working diligently to fill her room with well wishes and positives thoughts and prayers. Please join us in supporting Kelsee and her family in this difficult time and encourage her on her road to recovery. One way to do so would be through our Student Council tee-shirt sale found here https://www.athfundraising.com/kelsee. All proceeds go to supporting Kelsee and the Lainharts. Also attached below, Dearborn County's signed proclamation on Tuesday September 7th, thanking Kelsee for her service and sacrifice.


We are so proud of Kelsee and stand with her on her journey to recovery. This is why Sunman Dearborn and our surrounding communities are so special. When it's about one of us, it's about all of us!


WE ARE...EC!


“No leader is worth his salt who won’t set up the chairs.” Peter Drucker

Notes from Guidance

The school year is quickly progressing, and classes are continuing to work on specific items of completion. Listed below is an overview of tasks that each grade should be focused on completing.

Key items per grade:


Seniors:

ECHS will be holding our Financial Aid Night on October 6th 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 2022. We highly encourage all parents and seniors to attend. If you can not attend the presentation it will be live streamed on trojanmediaproductions.com and available to view at a later date if needed.


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 ASVAB tests will be offered on Sept. 22nd during the school day. Students who need a pathway for graduation will be given the option to take the ASVAB which will qualify them to graduate with the graduation pathways option.


PSAT will be offered on Oct. 26th. Juniors were offered the option to sign up for the test through guidance. This is not a required test but for any Junior that wants more practice for the SAT this is a great opportunity.


SAT School Day: New required test for all juniors in the state of Indiana beginning with the class of 2023 is the SAT that will be given during the school day on March 2, 2022. 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.


Sophomores and Freshmen:

These students should focus on their grades to build a strong transcript which will enable the most opportunities to them. Sophomores will take the PSAT on October 26h during the school year.


As always we are available to meet with students individually to support academic and emotional needs. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns.

Updates from The DropZone…

It has been a great start to the 2021-2022 school year for DropZone. Grades 10 through 12 all have new devices and charges so it has been a bit of a learning curve with incorporating a new device into maintenance rotation. We have 15 new students who have joined our tech support team and 5 returning students helping keep all of the chromebooks in good working order. The returning students to DropZone prove year after year to be a great asset as they bring quite a bit of knowledge and experience from the previous year allowing for a smooth transition at the start of the new school year. The veteran techs step up in leadership roles, mentoring new students, fearlessly taking them under their wings and showing them the ropes.


New to Computer Science 3

Computer Science 3 - Software Development has taken on a different look this year with the development of mobile applications. Mobile apps are becoming increasingly important to our consumption of media, news, social interaction, and learning. In this course, students learn how to create mobile apps using React Native. Students are learning to build applications to run on their own smartphones and create apps to solve specific problems. Popular programs that you might be familiar with that were built using React Native are Facebook, Instagram, Uber Eats, Airbnb, Discord, and Pinterest.

Engineering/Technology

Students in Advanced Manufacturing Class are currently learning about maintenance of tools and machines. Here are students learning how to sharpen hand saws, chisels and drill bits.

Education Professions

The Cadet Teachers are currently working on writing their Philosophy of Education papers in class. They will begin by thinking about characteristics that they appreciate in their role models as teachers and their own beliefs about teaching and learning.


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 lab experience of making “Chicken Stir Fry”. In september, students will begin learning about Kitchen Safety & Preventing Accidents in the Kitchens then Proper Measuring Techniques!


ProStart 1: Culinary Arts & Hospitality

Students in ProStart 1 began the year learning about the Hospitality Industry. Students have had the opportunity to evaluate the various parts of the foodservice industry including the commercial versus noncommercial segments. Students first explored the commercial restaurant and foodservice segment including: Restaurants, Catering & Banquets, Retail, and Stadiums. Then they learned about the smaller noncommercial foodservice segment including: Schools & Universities, Health-care facilities, Business & Industry, Club & Government facilities. They’ve 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 demonstrated their knowledge of the Hospitality Industry through a laboratory experience of making “Small Bite” Appetizers that you would see at a catered event or banquet center. Next month students will learn about early contributors to the hospitality industry and their impact on management philosophy and leadership.

We recently made fruit pizza as a way to practice using kitchen equipment safely, but this lab also gave students the opportunity to show off their creative sides.


Preparing for College and Careers

Students in Preparing for College and Careers are using their identified values, skills, and personalities to explore potential careers. Students identified some of the 16 Career Clusters that match personal interests and skills so they could examine those more closely. We identified a variety of different career options based on the 16 clusters and students learned about reliable sources for career research.

FCCLA

The East Central FCCLA is off to a great start this year. FCCLA held a successful bake sale/car wash fundraiser at Alig’s Shell in August. The money raised was used to pay for the membership dues of all of the students who participate in FCCLA. On September 10th, in all ECHS FACS Classes we integrated a 9/11 Day of Service as part of a YSA and FCCLA project. We talked about how 9/11 has changed our lives and how we can change the lives of others by showing gratitude by writing a card to our veterans, military and first responders. Many wrote cards to our Kelsey Lainhart, Marine and ECHS Alumni. We are so proud of our students’ kindness.We will be holding our annual Eat Dinner with Your Family Night for members and their families on September 16th.

We are already off to an exciting start to the year in the art department. Students are finding their rhythm and getting into the swing of things!


Drawing students have been learning about drawing that shows foreshortening. Students created a drawing that shows how objects appear shorter when viewed from a sharp angle. When the foreshortened object is close to us, the part appears large, while the part that moves away spatially appears smaller. Additional requirements are the principles of shading and characteristics of the Surrealism Movement.


Painting students have started off the school year with learning about color theory and creating a color scheme that is more expressive and impactful. Students learned how we perceive color; and the visual effects of how colors mix, match or contrast with each other.

Trojan Media Productions

Trojan Media Productions

What started off as simple question of “Is it possible to...”, soon became a challenge for the
students in the Radio/TV classes last year during the height of the Covid pandemic. With
crowd sizes being limited at all activities, the administration posed the question of the
possibility of streaming sporting events so that parents and the community could still be a part
of the Trojans athletic endeavors. With that, Trojan Media Productions was born and grew
quickly throughout the year. Streaming events from the Performing Arts Center as well as all
home football games, all winter sports, and attempting to stream spring sports live on
YouTube.

This year, with renewed energy, a new crop of students and new equipment, they
hope to continue the course they started last year, and hopefully raise the bar with new
production elements for fans to see while watching. While crowds are not limited at this time
this year, not everyone can attend events all the time. Some live out of the area, some are too
ill to attend, or have other reasons for not being able to be at the event in person. Trojan Media
Productions offers them the best means to enjoy sporting events, concerts, and awards
programs. This year Trojan Media Productions has also partnered with the IHSAA as an
affiliate. This allows all sporting content to be streamed on IHSAAtv.org as well as Trojan
Media Productions’ YouTube Channel. This also allows Trojan Media Productions access to
any post-season tournaments at home. Trojan Media Productions’ website,
www.TrojanMediaProductions.com, lists which events will be streamed at any given time, as
well as the links to the streamed events for YouTube.
