Edison Update 10-28-2016

Good afternoon Edison Families!

Everyone is super excited for our first Family party of the school year!  Tomorrow is the day and, if you are helping, set up begins at 2:00.  The parties will start at 2:15 and end at 2:55.  It will be short but sweet!  Please make sure you have touched base with your child's family teacher and/or party parent to see how you can contribute (if you haven't already).

We had a fun day today in the Edison area with the beginning of our two day, "Pumpkinology."  Ask your child what special things we did today! 

The time has come for the Edisons to take their second SRI test of the year.  We will take it next Wednesday morning and can't wait to see growth in every Edison.  Please ensure that your child is well-fed and is at school on time.  Thanks!

Mayo has a wonderful Thanksgiving tradition.  We love for parents to join us for a Thanksgiving lunch the Tuesday before Thanksgiving (November 22nd).  The entire school spends the morning in a "Community Day." We participate in activities with our Mayo family related to being thankful.  To make lunch run smoothly, we must have an RSVP and payment returned for anyone who will be joining us.  Please find that form attached.  Also attached is the lunch invitation with the time that your child's family will eat lunch.  We will also take family pictures that day, as well as retakes for individual pictures (in uniform).

Some of our field study dates have changed and we want to make sure you are aware of the new dates.  On Thursday, December 1st, we will be going to the Will Rogers Museum in Claremore.  Then, on Tuesday, December 20th, we will go downtown to the Woody Guthrie Center and the new Central Library.  Please mark your calendars and let us know if you can join us!

It's almost jog-a-thon time at Mayo!  Miles for Mayo, on Friday, November 4, is the Mayo Foundation's biggest fund raiser.  This year's theme is "Supporting Our Superheroes!" All funds raised will be used to pay for professional development and supplies for the Mayo teaching staff. Keep collecting pledges and donations!  Our goal is 100% participation in the Edison area!
