Roadrunner Family Newsletter

As we step into the final month of school, we’re filled with excitement and gratitude. I want to thank you for your continued support and partnership. It has been a privilege to work with you and your children throughout this incredible year.

May is a busy and exciting time at Edgemere! Our teachers are "Maximizing May" by spiraling in key concepts and focusing on our most challenging standards to ensure strong academic growth. Alongside end-of-year assessments, we also have presentations, special celebrations and events planned to honor our students' hard work. Please be on the lookout for updates from your child’s teacher and stay connected through ClassDojo, PeachJar, and our school’s social media pages to ensure you don’t miss any important information.

Academics remain a top priority. Our teachers are committed to providing meaningful instruction right up to the last day of school. Please help us by encouraging your child to stay engaged, focused, and present each day. Consistent attendance continues to play a big role in a strong finish to the school year.

Your voice matters! Please take a few minutes to complete the district parent survey. Your feedback helps us reflect, grow, and improve the experiences we provide for all students and families.

Thank you again for the trust you place in us each day. It has been an honor to be part of your child’s journey this year. Let’s finish the school year strong and make this last month one to remember!

Kindly,
Ms. González 💙💛
