The Erie Experiences courses recently took a unique field trip to Presque Isle, split into three parts. The first leg of the tour was led by Brian Gorman, an Operations Executive for Waldameer. Brian gave the students a behind the scenes tour of the amusement park and waterpark focusing on the history and the evolution of the park throughout the years. The second part of the tour took us to Misery Bay and Graveyard Pond at the foot of Presque Isle. Park Rangers from PI spoke about the historic significance of the area to the War of 1812 and the unique ecology we have at Presque Isle State Park. The final stop included a delicious lunch at Sara's.

Today is National Administrative Assistant's Day, and we could not be any luckier than to have the 2 best ones working at FES. However, Administrative Assistant does not accurately convey what their real titles are.
At FES their actual titles are "Administrative Assistant, bow fixer, shoelace tier, dad joke listener, booboo fixer, teardrop wiper, maid, party planner, trusted confidant, lost and found, snack suppliers, babysitters, keepers of most random supplies, gatekeepers, and other duties as assigned."
We could not run our school with the 2 of them and we think every day should be Administrative Assistants Day!
The ceramic 2 students are always investigating new things. Garren Grabowski explored sculpting a cow skull, Ellie Beuscher raku fired hair onto her pottery, and Vanessa Westman figured out how to use shaving cream to marbleize underglaze onto bisque ware.
Is there anything better than ice cream? How about measuring ice cream in centimeters? That is exactly how our second-graders learned how to measure in centimeters with a ruler!
In honor of "Earth Day," the High School Green Team presented to each grade level. The team talked to the students about different ways they can help the Earth and how they can be "greener!"
