As we wrap up the school year, Edison PTO wants to welcome everyone who will be joining the Edison family next year - all of our future 6th grade families and any new 7th/8th grade families. We also have to say “good-bye” to the 8th grade students and families. Eighth graders, we wish you all the best as you begin your high school adventure. And to the many eighth grade families who have given your time volunteering at events, helped provide and set up meals for conferences, donated money, and participated and supported our fundraisers during your time at Edison…we are truly grateful for the contributions you’ve made to our PTO and school community! A special thank you and farewell to our out-going book fair coordinator, Samantha Wescott. Thank you, Sam, for all your time and hard work!

Staff Appreciation Week (May 2-6):
Edison has an amazing group of teachers, administrators, and staff who work incredibly hard for the Edison students every day. PTO, along with the Edison Student Council, are excited to be able to show our gratitude during Staff Appreciation week. We will be treating the staff with May Day baskets, Bagel Boy Bagels, Poppy’s Popcorn, Star Wars themed treats (on May the 4th), and Culver’s meal certificates for each staff member.

8th Grade Party - Save the Date!
Parents of 8th graders, mark your calendars for the 8th Grade Party: May 25th, 2:00-3:45pm. Dr. Eggers is planning a really fun event for our graduating students and can use our support. In the next week we will be emailing you a sign-up to help with activities, supplies, and set-up/tear-down. Hope you can join in on the fun!

PTO Board Update and Thank You
At the March meeting we voted on PTO board members for the 2022-2023 school year. Help us welcome Peg Preston as co-president! Shannon Huber (Secretary), Kristina Sipma (Treasurer), and LeAnn Minister (co-president) will continue on in their current roles. The PTO wants to thank Nikki Schmaltz for her work as co-president these past two years. In the midst of COVID-19, she was committed to supporting our teachers, staff, and students. As she finishes 2021-2022 as co-president, she leaves the PTO in a strong position ready for next year. Nikki, thank you for your leadership and your investment in Edison. You have made sure Edison students, teachers, and staff are at the forefront of all PTO matters.

Staff Appreciation Week: May 2-6
Even though we're nearing the end of the school year, the Edison community is still active and can use our support! Staff Appreciation Week is May 2-6 and the PTO hopes to partner with students and parents for this! If you have ideas of how to show our teachers and staff appreciation, or offer them our support, please email the PTO at edisonsiouxfalls@gmail.com.
PTO Meetings & Activities
At our last meeting in March, the PTO voted to contribute money to support Edison's PBIS store and a DJ for the school dance. We will also begin to research fundraisers that better meet the needs of the Edison community. To learn more about PTO's activities, please read the meeting minutes on our website: Home (edisonsf.org)
