During the month of October, we are shining a spotlight on our incredible Math and Science Departments! These teachers work hard each day to engage students in hands-on learning, critical thinking, and real-world problem solving. Their dedication helps our students build a strong foundation for future success in and beyond the classroom.

Please join us in celebrating their commitment and all that they do for East Bladen students, staff, and families.

Today, we shine our spotlight on Mrs. Vera Melvin from our Math Department!

East Bladen Family, help us celebrate this year’s Ag Em Up Days. Held October 7–8, 2025, this annual event once again gave our students the opportunity to showcase their agricultural knowledge and leadership. Ag Em Up Day creates a hands-on learning experience that connects young learners with the world of agriculture cultivating curiosity, responsibility, and respect for our natural resources. Our East Bladen students proudly served as mentors and facilitators, guiding elementary students through interactive displays on livestock, soil science, beekeeping, tractors, and nutrition. Through their leadership, they not only inspired future agriculturalists but also strengthened their own skills in communication, teamwork, and public speaking. We are proud of how our students represented East Bladen High School with excellence and enthusiasm continuing the tradition of growing leaders in and beyond the classroom.

Thank you to the West family and Elizabethtown Presbyterian Church for providing today's pregame meal for our JV Football team!

East Bladen Varsity Cheerleaders Set to Shine at the Columbus County Fair The East Bladen Varsity Cheerleaders proudly represented East Bladen High School at the Columbus County Fair Cheer Competition on Monday, October 7th. After weeks of dedication and hard work, the team took the floor with confidence, spirit, and true Eagle pride. For the past month, the team has been busy preparing a dance, cheer, and chant routine that highlights their talent, unity, and school pride. Countless practices, careful choreography, and endless team spirit have gone into making sure their performance captures what it means to be an East Bladen Eagle. Every practice, stunt, and run-through reflected their determination to perform at their best to make our school proud. Their efforts paid off as the East Bladen Varsity Cheerleaders earned 1st place in their first-ever competition! Their strong performance, precision, and spirit impressed both the judges and the crowd, making it a memorable night for the entire team. The cheerleaders' success is a reflection of their hard work, dedication, and the unwavering support of the East Bladen community. Big congratulations to our neighboring school, West Bladen, on their 2nd-place finish! Strong competition makes us all better, and Bladen County was proudly represented last night!
