The Reading for Riley read-a-thon is this Friday. This is your last week to get donations from friends and family members to help support Riley's Children's Hospital. For those joining us for the read-a-thon, we will be meeting in the library after school. Be sure to bring your donations, comfy clothes, and blankets and pillows to set up your reading places in the library, and of course, something to read! We will be reading, playing games, having drawings, and eating lots of pizza. The read-a-thon will end promptly at 9:00p so please have your ride here by then. If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Helser, Mrs. Beer, or Mrs. Toumey
Game Club is back. Any game you can think of, we play. Starting this Thursday, stick around after school to enjoy all sorts of games to play with your friends until 4pm. Please have a ride ready to pick you up at 4pm. You can sign up by emailing Mr. Wise. Students with high amounts of missing work will stay with Mr. Demopoulos instead of Game Club, so make wise choices.
Soccer Tryouts continue today from 3:15 to 5:00p.
Robotics Club will meet after school today until 4:00p in the STEM lab.
Students are reminded to keep your hands to yourself. We are still trying to social distance and request you refrain from hanging on each other's bookbags, hugging, hand holding etc.
Dress code violations are increasing as the days are getting warmer. Edgewood will permit holes in the jeans that are fingertip length and below. All tank tops and shirts must have shoulder coverage that is ID width. Under garments should not be visible. No midriff shirts showing any skin all the way around the body. Students wearing leggings must wear a long enough shirt that covers their front and back side to be fingertip length. Skirts and shorts are to be fingertip length. Hoods on shirts are not to be worn in school.
Students who violate the foregoing rules will not be admitted to class. This will be addressed by teachers and the administrative staff. These rules are in place so that we are demonstrating modesty as well as keeping the focus on the academic success for all students. Anything that is distracting to the educational environment is not appropriate attire for Edgewood Middle School.
Today is the deadline for the March 22 ELearning assignments.
