Miss Kaitlyn Strawbridge - 1st grade

Teachers for a Day! 

Kaitlyn and Ashley Strawbridge were the teachers for the day in first grade-and what a great job they did!  Not only were they recognized with their "Teacher of the Day" titles, but they were our special helpers all day!  Ashley even had to clean the desks at the end of the day just as Mrs. Brown does in the afternoon.  Kaitlyn was constantly up and down, just like Mrs. Fraser/Ms. Montague. The students referred to each of them as "Miss Strawbridge."  The girls got a kick out of this!

Thank you, Miss Strawbridge and Miss Strawbridge, for a job well done!

We want to extend an invitation to parents of all preschool through eighth grade students to join us for an hour of coffee and conversation.  This might be a good time to ask questions about your child's next grade level, to share insights about this past school year, or just "pick our brain." There is no set agenda - just whatever interests you about Edgewood. Please join us for coffee and donuts on the above dates.

Edgewood students!

In 1994, Dale Hubert, a 3rd Grade teacher in Canada, began the Flat Stanley Project. He invited other teachers to take part by hosting flat visitors and to encourage their students to write their own Flat Stanley journals.  (Flat Stanley Project)

The Edgewood flat "Traveling Talon" Mascot is being sent home so he can hang out with you during your summer vacation. Talon can hike a mountain, go on a cruise ship, meet Mickey Mouse at Disneyland, spend the night at grandma's house, water ski at the lake, surf at the beach, watch movies, go to birthday parties, and more. Take a picture of him everywhere you go!

During the first month of school, we will gather your pictures and have a Traveling Talon assembly.

You can share your "Traveling Talon" adventures and pictures in two ways:

1. You can post them on the Edgewood Facebook page.

2. You can send one or two of your favorite Traveling Talon pictures to Mrs. Powell's email address, jpowell@fairmontschools.com.

SAVE THE DATE for the Last ECPA Meeting of the 2010/11 Year:

1) Parents need to enter the churchparking lot from Vanderlip ONLY. We want to have one way traffic in that parking lot. If parents ask another person (grandparent, friend etc) to pick/drop off their child, they need to inform that person of the procedure.

2) No running in the parking lots.

3) Children need to stay by their parents' side in the parking lot at all times.

4) Parents need to slow down in all the parking lots. Please no speeding.

5) No parking on the red curb.
