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.
The November PBIS Incentive: there are about 450 Edison students who earned the PBIS incentive in November!! This means we need more treats; please send cookies, brownies, cupcakes to the school office on Tuesday morning by 9 am. Thanks for your help and support of PBIS (Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports) at Edison! (Contact Claire Reiling at reilincl@champaignschools.org if questions)
Spring Musical: Edison's Fine Arts department will be presenting The Lion King Jr. for the Spring Musical. More than any other show before, we are in need of parental help. This is a play full of spectacle so we need help with costumes, props, puppet making, set and many other production areas. We are asking help from any parent who might be willing to volunteer their time and talent, regardless if your child is the play or not. If you would like to help in any way contact Lisa Richter, richterli@champaignschools.org or Jeff Dare, dareje@champaignschools.org
Scholastic Bowl: Do your students like trivia? Do they know a lot of random facts? If so, Scholastic Bowl is for them. Try-outs will be Nov. 30 and Dec. 1 after school in Mr. Cain's Room (128). Questions, please see Mr. Cain or Ms. Rotramel.
PTSA meeting minutes from Monday are attached.
Thanks for the Box Tops collected so far this year! We will receive a check for $260 for the Box Tops we have collected and now it's time to start again. Mrs. Wells is collecting them for new PE equipment. You may send them into her or give them to any teacher to put in her mailbox. Thanks for the support!!
The Unit 4 Board of Education has launched a blog: Board Corner, where you can get information on current district issues, upcoming board meetings, and board member insights. You can visit this site at http://u4boardcorner.blogspot.com and can also sign up for email notifications when a new post is available so you don't miss an update. Contact Kathy Richards (blog editor) if you have questions or suggestions: richarka@champaignschools.org.
