Welcome, Mrs. Mooney!


We are thrilled to officially welcome Mrs. Mooney - Edgewood's new principal. Mrs. Mooney's first day was last Friday where she spent the day experiencing our fantastic Edgewood community alongside Mrs. Hultquist. To help us welcome Mrs. Mooney - please come by to the school anytime today (9/23) to chalk the walk leading up to the front office! Let's help make her first official day as our principal a special and meaningful one!


Want to meet Mrs. Mooney and learn more about her? Come to our PTO meeting this Tuesday, 9/24 at 7pm in the cafeteria. (More information on that below, live stream available). We hope to see you there!


P.S. We are still collecting messages, photos, and drawings to send to Mrs. Hultquist this Friday. Please consider sharing a message by clicking here.

 

PTO Meeting - 9/24, 7pm, Edgewood Cafeteria

We will have our first PTO Meeting of the year on Tuesday, September 24 at 7pm. This meeting is our opportunity to introduce to you our Board, discuss our budget and initiatives for the year, and share more about our goals. We will also be hearing from our new principal, Mrs. Mooney and receive a school update from Mrs. Axler. This meeting will be extremely informative. We will also be live streaming the event - please look out for more information on this via email Tuesday.


 

It's not too late to preorder Pretzels! Last day to preorder - 9/23

First Pretzel Day - 9/27!


The 5th Grade is once again selling pretzels throughout the year in support of their 5th grade trip! They are offering the option of prepaying for pretzels to cover the entire year! This means no more last-minute scrambling for money before the bus arrives and no more waiting in line only to find that we've sold out! Pretzel sales will begin on Friday, September 27th, and run on select Fridays each month. A limited number of pretzels will be available for sale in the glass corridor before school for $2 each.


To sign up return the form below or click here! Pretzel days have been added to our google calendar.



If you have any questions - please email Michelle Draper: leahmichelledraper@gmail.com (Please be sure to put "Pretzels" in the subject line)
