Families-

This year, the Youth Truth Family Survey has been moved from Spring to Fall. This survey allows family to provide feedback to the school and district regarding school culture and student achievement. The feedback will be looked at by our Edwards Site Council to determine next steps for school improvement. Our Site Council is comprised of licensed staff, classified staff and parents. Thank you for taking the time to complete the survey.

Sun, Rain, Wind, Sun, Rain

As the weather can change rapidly this time of year, it's important that students come prepared with layered clothing to stay comfortable throughout the day. Layers allow for easy adjustments as temperatures fluctuate. We also encourage families to label all clothing, including jackets, sweaters, and hats, to help prevent lost items. Thank you for your cooperation in keeping students warm and organized!

Morning Supervision

This is a friendly reminder that our school gates do not open for breakfast until 7:20 AM. If you arrive before this time, please note that there is no supervision available and you will need to stay with your student. We appreciate your cooperation in helping keep all students safe!

Regular Attendance

Regular attendance fosters consistency, which is vital for academic success and social development. It helps students stay engaged, build routines, and develop time management skills essential for future endeavors. Additionally consistent attendance ensures that students don't miss out on valuable learning opportunities, such as classroom discussions, hands on activities and interactions with peers and teachers.

Just a quick reminder to check the lost and found for any missing items. We have several belongings that haven’t found their way home yet.
