October Happenings:
Melissa Steggall
This is a time of transition
for Edison. We are welcoming many new families to our community, and meeting change with anticipation and excitement. The
school year is well underway and we are working to implement a new initiative call Instruction Decision Making (IDM) at Edison.
The IDM Model is a way of approaching student learning with a pin point focus on student achievement. We have
a new motto here at Edison, “Success is our only option.” If we are all working for the same purpose and keeping
what is best for kids in mind, we can only be successful. Sincerely, Melissa Steggall
Helping you child do well at school:
- Make home a place of learning. Help your child practice reading, writing,
math, and science skills. Stimulate your child’s creativity.
- Promote healthy habits. Make sure your child gets
plenty of sleep and exercise and eats balanced meals. Schedule regular check-ups.
HELP OUR SCHOOL BY SAVING. . . Box Tops for Education logos found on the box tops of hundreds of General Mills products will earn cash for
the school. Just clip the coupons and save them until you have a few to send to school. We receive 10¢ for each coupon
we turn in. You don’t lose, as only schools may redeem them, and our children benefit from the money we raise. HyVee Receipts that are saved and returned to Edison will be totaled, and at the end of April, will be turned
in for cash. Receipts from all area HyVees qualify. Most have an orange edge. We are in desperate need for those HyVee Receipts.
We are way behind last year’s goal. Your child’s safety is one of our top priorities. Our desire is to provide a safe and secure environment
that allows your children to reach their greatest academic potential. Here are a few reminders: - Guest in the Building When ever you enter the building please check into the office, sign the visitor log,
and get a visitor’s pass.
- Dropping Off & Picking
Up Please park behind the busses in the morning and afternoon. You may also park in the parking lot of Our Saviour
Lutheran Church. Please have your children cross at the cross walk, and not between the busses. When dropping off and picking
up your children please be patient. The driveways can get congested and children are hurrying. We want to ensure all children
get to and from school safely, and that everyone is treated respectfully in the process. These expectations are for their
own safety
