Today marked an exciting milestone as seniors at East Noble High School picked up their caps and gowns in preparation for graduation. The moment made the journey feel real, as students look ahead to celebrating their accomplishments and the next chapter of their lives.
We are honored to recognize Trystan McCreery, a Social Studies teacher at East Noble High School, as this week’s East Noble Teacher of the Week.
Trystan brings so much more than lessons into his classroom, he brings passion and perspective. He creates an environment where students feel encouraged to think critically, engage with the world around them, and develop a deeper understanding of history and society. His classroom is a place where students feel respected, challenged, and inspired to grow both academically and personally.
The impact of a teacher like Trystan reaches far beyond the school walls. Through his dedication and guidance, he is helping shape informed, thoughtful citizens who will carry these lessons into the future.
We would also like to extend our thanks to the generous local businesses across Noble County who make this program possible: Scooter's Coffee - The Friendly Bean Team - Kendallville IN, Baker's Flowers and Gifts, Tasty's Donuts, El Fiesta Mexican Grill, and BettyLou Designs & Graphics. Your continued support allows us to shine a light on the educators who give so much of themselves to our community.
Please join us in celebrating Trystan McCreery on this truly well-deserved honor.

On Friday, April 17, East Noble School Corporation will be on a two-hour delay.
Students from Morgan Hannon’s and Tara Ortiz’s FACS classes at East Noble High School had the opportunity to tour Parkview Field, home of the Fort Wayne TinCaps today. During their visit, they met Team President Mike Nutter, who welcomed them and shared a brief history of the ballpark. The group then took part in a guided, behind-the-scenes tour that focused on food operations, including how meals are prepared, the work that goes into serving large crowds, and the roles of various employees. Students were able to speak directly with staff and gain insight into the culinary side of the organization, while also learning about summer job opportunities available to high school students. Overall, it was a valuable experience, especially for those interested in careers in culinary arts and food service. We would like to personally thank Mike Nutter, Holly Raney, and the entire Fort Wayne TinCaps organization for giving our students a great tour of the facility.

Last evening, East Noble High School hosted its annual Roots and Wings Banquet. An evening dedicated to celebrating the academic achievements of our top seniors. “Roots” represent the strong foundation provided by family, while “Wings” symbolize the knowledge, confidence, and inspiration given by teachers that empower students to pursue their dreams.
Each student had the opportunity to invite a special guest, a teacher or coach who has made a meaningful and lasting impact on their journey. It was a beautiful reminder of the relationships that help shape not only successful students, but remarkable individuals. Thank you to the teachers and coaches who have made a difference in these students’ lives: Mr. Robertson, Mr. Clark, Ms. Booth, Mrs. Asher, Mr. Liepe, Mr. Wilson, Mrs. Dewitt, Mr. Starkel, Mrs. Aumbaugh, and Mr. Wait.
Thank you to the parents, school board members, and administration who came together to recognize and celebrate the outstanding accomplishments of the Class of 2026.
Most importantly, congratulations to our seniors: Rylee Biddle, Gabriela Brinker, Nathan Cole, Macey Colin, Chloe Gibson, Boston Koons, Aaron Meek, Nathanial Schlotter, Amelia VanGessel, and Kylee Walz.
