Back To School Notes

Edison High School rolls out its new International Baccalaureate (IB) program this fall. This challenging academic program encourages students to think from an international perspective while developing an understanding of their own cultural and national identity. The emphasis on interdisciplinary learning requires studying across six disciplines: native language, second language, individuals and societies, mathematics, computer science, experimental sciences and the arts.

Morris Park Players, a venerable community theater group, has relocated to Edison High School. Their first production in their new home will be the musical Annie, opening November 5.

Save the date for the Edison Homecoming & Octoberfest: Friday, September 24. Game time is 5 p.m. Octoberfest is in Jackson Square Park following the game. The entertainment will include the musical talents of the Edison Alumni Band, Pop Bang and King Custom & the Cruisers.

This year’s Edison Community BBQ was a resounding success for the fourth year in a row! Approximately 1100 community members, staff, students and parents visited and enjoyed brats, burgers, chicken and more. Principal Carla Steinbach and the Edison staff extend a big thank you to all the community members and sponsors who showed their support.
