We are looking forward to our annual holiday caroling event this Thursday and Friday.  Caroling will start at 9:30 each morning.  Doors will open at 9:10 so please don't try to enter the building before then.  We want to make sure we get our students to class safely before guests start arriving.  Just a reminder that parents should only attend caroling on their assigned day so we have enough seating.  All K-3 students will sing the same songs each day so you don't have to worry about missing anything.  Assigned days are as follows:
Thursday - 2nd and 3rd grade parents
Friday - Kindergarten and 1st grade parents
We look forward to seeing you at our caroling event and appreciate your cooperation in attending only on your assigned day so we can seat everyone comfortably.  
Happy Holidays!

As we approach the winter season the temperature will continue to drop.  Please remember that we make every effort to take the students outside for recess if the weather allows.  If the temperature is at least 21 degrees with the windchill we will go outside.  Please dress your child appropriately for school and make sure they are prepared for these colder temperatures.  Thank you!

Now that we are through the first month of school I wanted to remind everyone of our attendance policies at Edison Elementary School.  This year we will really be monitoring student attendance and setting up attendance intervention meetings with parents if needed.  Success in school is directly related to regular attendance and we want to make sure we are doing everything we can to make sure your child is at school daily.  HB 410 requires us to send absence intervention letters to families of students who miss 38 or more hours in a month or 65 or more hours in a year.  If your child meets these thresholds you will receive a letter from my office.  If a meeting needs to be scheduled that will be included in the letter.  If attendance doesn't improve we will take the next steps in contacting our local truancy officers as needed.  
Also, if you know that your child is going to be absent for any reason please let your child's homeroom teacher know AND email Mrs. Baehr at [email protected]. 
Thank you,
David Hermes

Neel and Seville - Wednesday

The beginning of the school year has gone very smoothly with arrival and dismissal of our walkers and car riders.  I know this can be a very hectic time of the day due to our parking limitations but I wanted to thank all of you for your patience and cooperation as we get our students to and from school safely each day.  I did want to remind everyone that the back parking lot on Center St. is for staff members only.  We have had a few parents parking back here recently.  We dismiss all of our bus riders through this area so please do not park in the staff parking lot due to safety concerns. Thanks again for your patience and cooperation during this busy time!!! 

Thank you,

Parents, 
        Starting Wednesday, September 4, you must drop your child off at the front doors and allow them to walk to class by themselves.  We will have plenty of supervision for the students who still need assistance finding thier classrooms.  We appreciate your help the first couple weeks in getting the children used to walking to their classrooms but in order to maintain the safety and security of the building the students must be dropped off at the front doors moving forward.  Thanks again for your cooperation and have a great holiday weekend!!
        Remember that we DO NOT have school on Monday or Tuesday of next week!! 

Thank you,

WELCOME BACK!!
We are excited to see everyone on Monday evening at our orientation.  As I said in an earlier email, this year we will be running more of an Open House format so you have more flexibility to visit your child's classroom, talk with the teacher, and drop off supplies.  The only parents that have required meetings in the gymnasium are preschool, kindergarten, and any student who is new to the buildng.  I have attached the 2024-25 orientation information and it is also posted on our school website.  Please make sure you know what homeroom your child is in before Monday evening.  Those lists are also posted on our website.

KINDERGARTEN
Each year the state of Ohio requires schools to assess every kindergarten student using the Kindergarten Readiness Assessment (KRA). At Edison Elementary we use the first four days of school to bring in each child for a 45 minute appointment in order to administer the KRA. During this time it also gives the homeroom teacher a chance to meet with your child one-on-one in order to build a relationship as we start the new school year.  I sent out an email yesterday stating that homerooms are posted on the Edison Elementary webpage.  Once you know your child's homeroom teacher you may sign-up for a KRA appointment using the links below.  
 
From August 20-23 your child will only come to school for their KRA appointment.  Then on August 26 only BOYS will attend and on August 27 only GIRLS will attend.  ALL kindergarten students start on Wednesday, August 28.  
 

Thank you,
David Hermes
