A Note from LeAnn Minister, PTO co-president
Being part of Edison’s PTO Board has given me a greater understanding of our hardworking staff and amazing students. This position has allowed me to spend more time with our teachers and staff, witnessing how much they care for our students and families. And by spending more time in the school I’ve also observed how helpful and compassionate our students are toward one another. Yes, in many ways it is a normal middle school where the students are growing into their independence and taking on the attitudes that come with that. As they go through this season of their lives, though, I’ve come to appreciate how supportive the teachers and staff are of them. I, along with Kristina Sipma and Shannon Huber, are “retiring” from the PTO Board. I encourage you to consider supporting the Edison community by joining the PTO Board. Like it did for me, it will connect you with amazing people and allow you to see all of the impressive things happening in our students’ lives.
