Edgemont Elementary PTA
Monthly E-News Update

 

We are all excited that our summer vacation is only three weeks away, but before we break,  the PTA wants to take a moment and thank all of you for making the 2011-2012 school year fun and productive for our children and community.

 

Through the efforts of volunteers our children were able to participate in After School Clubs, act and imagine through the theatrical production of Willy Wonka, become scientists for the night at the Science Fair, buy new and used books, and learn to write poetry, become authors, and learn about art throughout our Cultural Arts program.  In all, the PTA ran over 40 committees this year thanks to all of you.    

 

None of our programs could be provided without the financial support of the community and the overwhelming time and effort of all our volunteers.  We are grateful to the entire community.  So, a sincere thank you.  Enjoy your summer and we can't wait to see you in a mere 74 days!
