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.
February 5
- AskUnit4: The first #AskUnit4 Twitter chat will take place on Friday, February 15, 2013 from 2-4 pm on Twitter. The first hour will be dedicated to questions about the Future Facilities Process where participants will have the opportunity to ask questions and provide feedback. Participants will also be encouraged to take an online questionnaire to offer their input on the District's school facilities options. The second hour will be solely a Q&A opportunity for all those participating to ask questions to Champaign Unit 4.
- Future Facilities Dialogue Session: Champaign Unit 4 School District will host two Future Facilities Community Dialogue sessions on February 12 at the I-Hotel and Conference Center from 3-5 p.m. and 6-8 p.m. The Community Dialogue invites all community members, students, teachers, parents, and business owners to offer their input on possible options for updating or replacing some of the District's aging school buildings.
- Box Tops: Pull those General Mills Box Tops off the refrigerator and out of that drawer, clip them up and send them in to Edison to turn them into $$. Students can turn Box Tops in to any of their teachers, and they will be collected to send in to General Mills. Box Tops need to be in to teachers by February 22nd to be turned into dollars for this school year.
- NJHS: Applications for the Edison chapter of the National Junior Honor Society are now available on the Edison web-site and in the main office. Applications are due to Mr. Cain by March 1, 2013. Current National Junior Honor Society members do not need to complete the applications for this year, but should contact Mr. Cain about their 2012 community service hours. If there are any questions please contact Mr. Cain at cainza@champaignschools.org or 351-3771.

- From Coach Johnson: After several years coaching the 8th grade boys basketball team, I have decided that this will be my last season coaching. I would like to thank all of the custodians, teachers, administrators, parents and players that I have been fortunate enough to have created positive working relationships with during my tenure at Edison. I have created a lot of wonderful friendships and hope that those continue in the future.
Much appreciation to the Edison FAMILY for entrusting me with their young men. I am hopeful that I played a small role in helping them be good basketball players, but an even larger role in helping them become better young people. Thank You!
Sincerely,
Coach Johnson
- Central Spiritwear: Central HS PTA is selling off the remainder of their spirit wear. They have hoodies, t-shirts, and sweat pants. They do not have all sizes and colors but still have a lot available. They can e-mail me at snell1985@aol.com and I can tell them what we have.
- Community Forums: Champaign Schools will hold informational forums to discuss the Schools of Controlled Choice registration process. The forums will also include a Showcase of Schools. This will provide an opportunity for parents and guardians to meet and talk with individual school staff members. Attached is a schedule of events.
