A big shoutout to our January Students of the Month! Thank you for working hard, living out the Edison DREAM, and showing great leadership in our school community. Keep up the amazing work!
Last month, our 6th graders brought history to life—literally! Staff and students teamed up for a hands-on, mock mummification, recreating the fascinating rituals of ancient times. The students impressed us with their knowledge, stayed engaged throughout, and most importantly, had a blast!
Reminder, no school tomorrow, January 10th!
Join the PTO for a EMS Spotlight Skate on Friday, 1/17. Bring your school ID or this flyer for discounted admission and skate rental. Hope to see you there!
Spanish 1 students put their first semester learning to the test as they worked both collaboratively and cooperatively to unlock their team boxes in an escape room-style game. They demonstrated resilience and applied their language skills to achieve a common goal. The activity was both challenging and fun, with one team successfully opening their box just before time ran out! ¡Buen trabajo!
Happy New Year from everybody at SFSD! Here's to another year of opportunities and possibilities. We are excited to welcome back students and staff TOMORROW, January 2nd, 2025! We can’t wait to see everyone!
