Good afternoon Edison families!
Your students persevered through testing and we could not be more proud! We know you are anxious to know how they did, but unfortunately preliminary results for them won’t be available until JULY! As you know, this is the test that determines whether some students are ready to progress to 4th grade. We have maintained academic records on ALL Edisons and have been in touch with those of you who have children on an Academic Progress Plan and are in question of promoting. We will be in contact with those families soon to set up a meeting and decide together what is best for the child.
Tomorrow your child will bring home a large garbage sack to use for their sleeping bag and pillow for the overnight next week. Please DO NOT SEND THESE BACK TO SCHOOL, but BRING THEM WITH YOU NEXT THURSDAY MORNING. Remember that if you are going on the trip with us, keep your child’s sack and backpack with you. We will need the space under the bus for those students who don’t have an adult coming. We also thought of one more item that parents might want to bring: a folding chair. This would come in handy at the recreation center while we are eating. Last week your child brought home a packing list and a detailed itinerary for the trip, as well as committee information for those adults attending. Also, many students brought home a Volunteer Application and Security Check form early this week that must be returned to the office by Friday so that you can attend the overnight! Some parents already had this information on file, but many did not. Please ask your child if they received a paper.
If anyone is interested in applying to Mayo for a KG-5th grade spot the application window is Monday 4/10/17 – Friday 4/28/17. Parents will need to fill out a “paper” application at the Enrollment Center during the application window. The application is called “Neighborhood School Transfers”. Parents who wish to apply and have their child’s name placed on a waiting list for the 2017-18 school year must attend one of the tours listed below. Tours are for adults only and a reservation must be made in advance.
