Principal's Message
Dear Edison Families,
Our kids rock. Case in point, our Associated Student Body (ASB) already does so much to lead and support our positive school culture so having them take things up a notch this year with our Rudolph Dash challenge was a lot of fun to be a part of. It's still anyone’s race as we trail the top school but EdisonNation led by these amazing Bobcats certainly ran a great race in support of our Promise Scholars!
Last day to register online is Sunday, December 5 at 11:59 PM.
Oh, and a huge thanks to the “anonymous elf” that donated those lovely reindeer antlers for me to wear this past week. I'm going to go dig up the rest of my reindeer suit, you know, just in case we beat our previous participation record and we Rudolph the Principal :)
Excited to get outside and build some community with EdisonNation Saturday. Thank you for your partnership and support!
Principal Lopez

Students Presenting Symptoms at Home -- Please Contact Our Health Office
In an effort to maintain a healthy school environment and to mitigate the spread of the COVID-19 virus, we ask that all parents screen their child for COVID-19 symptoms each morning before they send them to school, and keep them at home if they are sick using our Daily Checklist for Families.
This shared responsibility is critical to our ability to keep everyone safe, healthy and attending in person each day.
Please report your child’s illness with details of all symptoms to our health office at 909-984-5618. Our Health Office will follow up on all students that are at home with COVID-19 symptoms.
