EAST Night Out At SEACBEC



Article by EAST Student, Eriahn Broughton

EAST Night Out is a national “open house” celebration of our EAST program where family, friends, and the general public are invited to see how students are making a difference in our community and celebrate the work already underway.  During EAST Night Out, EAST classrooms share with their school, community members, business leaders, media and families the power of student-driven, service-based, technology-infused education.  This event was located at the Warren SEACBEC EAST classroom and Assembly room on October 14, 2014; more than 70 schools across the EAST world opened their doors to the community that night.  The EAST Facilitator, Mrs. Janet Harton, and students worked together to showcase projects and share the EAST story.  Students were everywhere!! They greeted people at the door, gave out refreshments and set up technology. Over 150 individuals attended the event.  Some of the technology showcased was green screen techniques, Broadcast videos, and current software students were working on as well as various community service projects.  They made sure every person felt welcome!
