Darcy Krulisky, Campus Director - Edgewood Campus

At Fairmont, when February rolls around, it means Open House!  Plan to attend on Friday, February 27 from 6-8 PM.  This year our campus theme is "Edgewood-By-the-Sea."  We have some wonderful events and demonstrations planned for this evening.  This is also an opportunity to look into the future and visit the classrooms that your child might inhabit next year!

Fairmont's IT department has been demonstrating a number of forms of technology for the teachers, administration, and parent association board members.  They have collected feedback about how these tools would be integrated into our curriculum and their usefulness to the teachers.  I am happy to announce that Fairmont is providing the Edgewood campus with a number of Promethean Activeboards, document cameras and Renaissance NEO2s, after receiving positive feedback from the teachers.  If you want to know more about these tools, please plan to join us at Open House for a demonstration.  Expect to see them in several selected classrooms by mid-March.

February is also Teacher Appreciation Month.  Edgewood administration takes this month to honor its teachers and staff for the wonderful job that they do.  Teachers will partake in "free dress" Fridays, gift card drawings, luncheons, and special treats and will be the recipients of teacher grams from their appreciative students.  During the last week of the month, the Parent Association also joins in making the teachers and staff feel very special.

I am very proud of the Edgewood staff and their dedication to the children and preparing them for the next level of education.  We are continuously pursuing new tools and methods to help your children to become the best students and citizens that they can be.
