This Thanksgiving, we are truly grateful for this beautiful community that we live in - one that embraces inclusivity, supports one another and comes together for all of our children. We are thankful to our administrators, teachers, support staff, custodial staff and our Board of Education that all work so hard to make our school a safe and fun place for our children to learn and grow. We are grateful for the army of volunteers giving up their time and talent to make all of our enriching PTA events and programs happen. We appreciate our community's continuous support of our fundraisers and events. To our entire Edgemont community - THANK YOU!
We hope that you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
As always, email us with any questions, feedback, or ideas.
Have a great week!
