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.

 

 

 

October 12

 

  • Changes for Announcements: Because we have so much info to put into announcements (which is great) we felt it would be helpful if we could separate athletic announcements from the regular announcements. We have an awesome athletic program at Edison and we really want to give it the attention it deserves. Going forward we will separate the announcements. There will be 2 announcements sent out–the regular announcements and then another called "Athletic Alerts."

 

  • No Food Delivery: We want to remind students and parents that ordering food to be delivered during the day is not allowed. We have had students and parents (ordering for students) order food during the school day and this is against school rules.

 

October 10

 

  • Photo Orders Online: Student's photos were taken last Thursday and if you didn't receive an order form you can still order online. Visit Interstate Studios online at http://www.inter-state.com/ Edison's school code for ordering is 111711
