Edison's Mission
It is our mission at Edison Middle School to work collaboratively to place the focus on the academic, social, and emotional needs of each individual student first and ensure that ALL students are prepared for post-secondary education.
Picture Day: is October 2. If your child hasn't already brought home an order form, it should be coming.
Spirit Wear: we plan to distribute Spirit Wear orders (that weren't picked up at Open House) during lunch at school, hopefully early next week. Watch the email announcements for a firm date as well as information on another chance to order, just in time for the holidays!
SigEp Leadership Academy is looking for 7th and 8th grade students to be a part of their leadership training program. See attachment for details or contact Edison's volunteer coordinator, Christina Cooper, at cooperch@champaignschools.org.
Open House Feedback: What did you think of your Open House experience? What was done right and needs to continue, and what could be changed? Please send your comments and suggestions to Interim Principal Oakes-Novak at oakesdo@champaignschools.org
Social Probation: Please talk to your students about social probation, which is exclusion from participation in and/or attendance at an extracurricular school-sanctioned activity like ball games, concerts and dances. A student will be placed on social probation if/when:
•He/she has not served the assigned detentions minutes
•He/she is failing one or more classes
•Administration places him/her on social probation.
County Market Max Dollars for Education: if you're a County Market shopper and wish to designate Edison as your Max card school, sign up at www.myCountyMarket.com or at the customer service desk at any store. Our school code is 14088.
Physical and Dental forms: Remember to turn in your student's physical form and dental form to the school office. Physicals are due no later than October 15th or the student will not be able to attend school. You can find all health forms here:http://www.champaignschools.org/pages/health-service/health-forms-action-plans
