FIELD DAY!!!
Elementary and Intermediate students have been gearing up for weeks for the Annual Field Day tomorrow (May 16th).  Coach Jameson and Coach Bundy work hard to prepare these kids for this fun filled day.  Flyers should have gone home with the times for each campus (8:15 Elementary/12:15 Intermediate).  Please make sure students wear tennis shoes, appropriate athletic clothing, and sunscreen.  Parents are welcome and encouraged to attend, but please follow guidelines on where to stand on the track and around the stadium so that the day runs smoothly.
Academic Awards
Just a reminder that Edgewood High School will be hosting the annual Academic Award ceremony tonight (May 15th) at 6:00 PM in the High School Library.  Students receiving awards should have received a letter in the mail.

Senior To-Do List
The Spring Semester is very busy with athletics, academics, banquets, etc. in addition to preparing for the end of the 2011-2012 school year.  For a Senior, it is an extremely busy time of year.  Edgewood High School Administration has developed a to-do list to help relieve some of the stress for our Seniors.  Please click below to print important dates and information for our Senior students.

Questions and Answers Regarding STAAR

The State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness, or STAAR, will replace the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) program beginning in spring 2012. The STAAR program at grades 3–8 will assess the same grades and subjects as are assessed on TAKS. For high school, general subject-area TAKS tests will be replaced with twelve STAAR end-of-course (EOC) assessments. Edgewood ISD would like for you to understand the new STAAR testing.
