⭐ Character Lesson of the Month: Cooperation


This month our school is focusing on the character trait Cooperation. Cooperation means working together, listening to others, and helping one another reach a common goal. In classrooms and throughout the school, students will practice sharing ideas, taking turns, encouraging classmates, and being supportive teammates. When we cooperate, we help create a stronger, kinder school community for everyone.


Thank you for your continued support of Edison Elementary. We appreciate all that you do to help make our school a great place for our students to learn and grow!

With gratitude,

Ruben Dominguez


Recurring reminders:

Traffic Reminder 🚗

To help keep traffic flowing safely and efficiently, please turn right when exiting the school during arrival and dismissal. This small change will help reduce congestion and ensure a smoother transition for all families. Thank you for your cooperation!


Also, when crossing the street or high traffic areas, please make sure to be crossed by a crossing guard at the cross walk, thank you.


Reading and Writing at home: We do a great deal of reading and writing at school. Parents/Guardians, if you could help us out by helping your kiddos with their home work, also reading to them, and having them write something short and age appropriate (pre-k: trace some letters, Kinder: write a few short words, 1st grade: write a short sentence), would go a long way.


Homework Reminder: I want to take this opportunity to encourage all parents to support their children with their homework. Your involvement in your child's education plays a crucial role in their academic success. By working together, we can ensure that our students are reaching their full potential.


Parental Involvement: Research consistently shows that students perform better in school when their parents are actively involved in their education. I am proud to share that our school has seen a significant increase in parental engagement over the past year. Let's keep up this positive momentum as we work together to support our children's learning journey.


Summer School Update: I must inform you that there will not be summer school offered this year for attendance recovery. Therefore, it is imperative that your student attend school on time each and every day unless they are sick. If they are sick please leave a doctors note with the front office.


School policy: Parents, we will not allow early pick up of students after 3pm, including Doctors appointments, etc...


Transportation Changes: ALL Transportation changes must be made no later that 12pm. Any changes after that time cannot be made. Thank you,

MONDAY, MARCH 30  Regular Instruction Day  FRIDAY, APRIL 3 Good Friday - All campus and district offices will be closed.  MONDAY, APRIL 6 Bad Weather Makeup Day. This will be a regular instruction day due to previous weather related closures.
