The Edgemont School Foundation is incredibly excited to announce a new capital project in partnership with the district for a major upgrade to the Edgemont High School auditorium. This project is long overdue and, with the support of the community, will provide a great improvement for all theatrical performances, gradewide meetings, teacher meetings, assemblies, and band/chorus/orchestra productions. The funds donated by the Edgemont community through ESF will enable:

- The replacement of antiquated sound and lighting equipment

- The installation of soundproofing to enhance acoustics

- Greater aisle accessibility

- Updated fly rigging to allow for multiple scene changes and enhanced learning opportunities

- A refinished stage floor


Please support this exciting project by making a generous donation HERE. We are thankful for all of your continued support.
