Darcy Krulisky, Campus Director - Edgewood Campus

Only 7 weeks left of school - we are running out of time!

May brings CTP4 testing (grades 1-8) at the beginning of the month and Mastery testing (grades 1-6) at the end of the month.  Junior high students will be gone during Travel Week: sxith graders go to Science Camp in the mountains, seventh graders to the Grand Canyon, and eighth graders to Washington D.C. and New York City.  We have assemblies, field trips, a 5th grade state fair, soccer, and the eighth grade musical GREASE.  Third trimester progress reports go home on Friday, May 9.  Despite the many activities, we are busy preparing your children for the next grade level and the future.

Congratulations are in order.  Mr. Hughes' Debate Team had a wonderful showing at the National Tournament with our team winning the best in the Inland Valley Debate League.  Mr. Hobbs' and Mrs. White's junior high science students won numerous awards at the OC Science Fair, with a record thirteen students going on to the state competition.  Edgewood won top school in the junior high division, with Alyssa Cook being the sweepstakes winner in junior high entries.  Our Academic Pentathlon teams (7th and 8th grade) both came in 2nd place in their division in Orange County, against the toughest competitors.  Over one hundred individual medals were brought home by Edgewood pentathletes.  Mrs. DeVane's art students are winning awards galore at the Youth Expo, Imagination Celebration, and several other art competitions.

 We continue our commitment to stressing community service from our students.  Remind your junior high students of their commitments before promotion.  Homerooms are busily recycling, writing letters to servicemen, cleaning up beaches, etc.  We are proud of their efforts and their concern for others.

 It was fun seeing so many of you at Fairmont Family Night at Angels Stadium.  Edgewood had a great turnout from families and staff!  Let's hope we have the same seats next year!

I thank you again for your support of the school and our effort to provide the best education possible.
