District 12 of the Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) recently held its Fall District Meeting at Williamsville East High School on October 15, 2023. This event marked the first conference of the year, bringing together FBLA members from throughout the district for a day filled with helpful and exciting workshops and sessions. It was an excellent opportunity for members to connect, learn, and take their involvement in FBLA to the next level.

Last Tuesday, the Varsity Boys Cross Country team wrapped up their regular season with a league meet win against Sweet Home; for many of the seniors, it was a bittersweet experience. Reflecting on the experience, seniors Dan Costello and Brady Miller agreed that it was “painful”. Cross-country tends to do that. Overall, though, the team agreed that it was a great season.

With the end of the fall sports season, the first show of the year is just around the corner! To start off November with a bang, Drama Club will be hosting members and their families at East for their production of Wendy and Peter Pan. Both our Drama Club and Stage Crew have been diligently working in their rehearsals and on the sets and logistics to ensure that the first play of the year is a success! 

October is already coming to an end, but you know what that means: Halloween is here! In the spirit of spooky season, we at the East Side News hosted an informal survey about East’s thoughts regarding the holiday.

Perhaps the movie event of the year, “Barbenheimer” swept through social media like a storm, with memes, fan-made posters, discussions about viewing order and the seeming dichotomy of the two films, and even shirt designs circulating everywhere. The opening weekend for the two films garnered the fourth largest domestic weekend and highest box office since pre-pandemic in 2019.
