 Congratulations, Josiah!
Josiah G., a Kindergartner in Ms. Martinez's class has been a martial arts student for over 3 years with 2 private and 2 group lessons weekly. We are extremely proud to be able to announce that on Saturday, May 5th, Josiah went through extensive testing for and was awarded his Black Belt in Taekwondo. He started as a white belt and then was awarded over the last three years his yellow, orange, purple, green, blue, brown, red, and now his Black Belt! Josiah is one of the youngest to receive this honor from any west coast approved martial arts studio, and he trained exclusively at Sunrise Martial Arts in Orange County. Way to go, Josiah!

Week of the Young Child
Edgewood Preschool through Kindergarten students celebrated the Week of the Young Child on Monday, April 23rd - Friday, April 27th. Monday was Art Project Day, Wednesday was Popsicle Party Day and Friday was a Bubble Assembly. All the students loved celebrating a week dedicated to them!
Driving Safely
For safety reasons, we want to give you a couple of reminders about driving on or around the campus.
1) Please drive slowly in all the parking lots, church and school. There are young children here who do not always look before moving across a line of traffic. As adults, you need to use caution when driving around the school.
2) Please observe all posted traffic laws so as not to disrupt non-school traffic flow. We have had some complaints about parents not observing posted traffic signs.
3) Please do not leave your vehicle unattended in the red zone in front of school. We use this as a our car loading area and unattended vehicles disrupt the traffic flow.
Thank you for keeping our children safe!
