WELCOME!!
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FROM THE PTA FOR 2011-2012


Whether you are a returning family or new to our school, we welcome you to another exciting year at Edna Maguire. Our incredible programs flourish due to your support and generosity. Please review the following:

Website ednamaguire.org has all of the school information that you need to know. Our amazing webmaster, Tim Schultz, and calendar guru, Linda Dunne, keep things current with dates, information, and photos. Bookmark and check in often!

Twitter Never miss a school event! You can now follow Edna on Twitter. It's easy to sign up - just visit our homepage and click the Twitter icon or sign up directly with lisazimmer1. Principal Lisa Zimmer is tweeting!

The Pony, our newsletter, edited by Dorothy O'Donnell will be sent via email every other Tuesday. This is your primary source of school information. Letters from Principal, Lisa Zimmer, requests for volunteers, notices for events or programs, appreciations, links to the web and much more are included bi-monthly. Read it to stay informed. New this year, a reminder email of events for the week in the weeks without a Pony.

Volunteer! Volunteer opportunities at our school are (seemingly!) endless... and we need you! Please review the enclosed Volunteer Form and sign up online at Sign Up Genius. This is the best way to get connected, make new friends and make a difference in our community! We have an all school volunteer opportunity coming up on September 24. This is your chance to Beautify Edna and make our school look its best for the coming year.

Steeplechase, our major school fundraiser, will be held on Friday, October 21. Your donations for the annual lap-a-thon, Every child, Every day, Everything, support educational programs, technology and supplies and equipment for the classrooms and school. Your generosity and participation are critical to our success!

Wednesday, September 14 is Back-to-School Night (adults only please). Third -Fifth Grade parents should meet in their classrooms from 5:30-6:15pm. All parents should meet in the Multi-Purpose Room from 6:30-7:00pm. Kindergarten -Second Grade parents should meet in their classrooms from 7:15-8:00pm.

Come and enjoy the company of Principal Zimmer and other families in your child's grade level at the Family Picnic/Principal Chat on a fall Sunday afternoon. Please bring your own picnic dinner, drinks and place settings. Read the Pony or check the school calendar to find your designated Sunday. Our first picnic is on September 11 for 4th and 1st grade families.

Picture Days for all Edna students will be on September 8 and 9. Get ready by getting your hair cut now and picking out your favorite clothes to wear!

We welcome your questions, suggestions, and concerns and encourage you to get involved. Thank you for supporting the Edna PTA!
