Broadcasting
Broadcasting is a hands-on, project-based course which acts as the voice of East Aurora High School and beyond. From anchoring our morning news show on BDTV to reporting on different school events-- from calling play-by-play sporting events (both indoor and outdoor) to concerts, dramas, club activities, and community events-- students get on-site and on-set TV experience.
Aurora Film Academy
AFA provides students a multi-disciplinary approach to movie-making, culminating in a student-produced film festival. This program combines electives and a core course to fulfill the New York State English graduating requirement. The academy has been designed as a team-collective in which each student's participation is integral to the success of the other members. Thus, the program mimics a working environment of a production company, and includes field trips for on-site film shoots.
Counseling Services
We offer counseling services in each building with a robust staff on hand to handle all the needs of our students. Keep a look out for our furry counseling buddies in the middle school!
STEAM
Students are introduced to STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Math) starting in Kindergarten! They spend time in the STEAM lab throughout primary and secondary school. Once they reach high school level, they are offered multiple courses including Design and Drawing, Computer Programming, Principles of Engineering and much more. We are also a 1:1 Chromebook district which means each student is issued a Chromebook to assist them in their studies.
Music Department
We offer chorus, orchestra, and band starting in fourth grade!
Art Department
The East Aurora High School Art department offers a diverse curriculum that affords aspiring students to explore the visual arts in an inviting and encouraging atmosphere. We are fortunate to have amazing facilities, equipment, and materials... as well as a dedicated and passionate staff of teachers. There is a wide variety of courses to consider from Studio in Art to AP Art... including 2-dimensional, 3-dimensional, and digital/media arts. We look forward to seeing you in the art room.
LEAP Program
The LEAP Honors Experience is an 8th grade elective program. LEAP stands for leadership, empowerment, achievement and passion. Students in the program explore the world through a design thinking lens, which brings opportunities for them to discover their own leadership styles and passions.
Community Garden
Parkdale Elementary is home to a beautiful garden that our students maintain. They are able to see the food process from seed to table.
Creative Writing Club
Creative Writing Club [CWC] meets twice monthly to plan our literary magazine which comes out two to three times a year. In addition, we share our writing and work on fun and unique activities practicing the art of poetry and prose.
Musical Theatre Arts & Drama Club
East Aurora Theatre Arts and Drama Club strive to have students at the center of our productions by guiding them in leadership positions on the stage, in the orchestra pit, backstage and on costume crew. Students promote the show on our production staff and, of course, take the stage. In addition, student instrumentalists make up all of the pit for most shows. From student directors to student designers, we focus on giving high schoolers as much responsibility as possible. We are fortunate to have been recognized for choreography and technical aspects of the shows. Our graduates have gone on to jobs in theater, television and other areas of the entertainment industry. East Aurora is lucky to have tremendous support for the arts whether for one of the oldest and most successful community theaters of the Aurora Players or hosting the national music festivals. Our high school receives the same support from our community with sold-out performances. Most importantly, we're dedicated to providing young musicians, actors, dancers and backstage workers the most team-oriented experience possible. Musical theater is certainly about entertaining an audience, but it's also about making art, an endeavor that should be personal and meaningful for all involved.
