Good morning. On Tuesday, November 11th, school will be dismissed at 11:30 AM. The Veteran's Day Program starts at 10:00 AM. Following the program there will be a free-will offering meal provided by FCCLA and FCA for the community. We will not be having any normal school lunch offered that day, however, the free will offering meal is for everybody. We will get more information out in the near future, I just wanted to make everyone aware of the school dismissal at 11:30 AM that day. Thank you.

This school year the Makerspace has been a happening place for the Kindergarten through 6th grade students! What is Makerspace? It is a collaborative workplace for students to create, invent, tinker, and learn. Our first project this year was, designing and creating a tree house using toilet paper rolls, construction paper, yarn, popsicle sticks, tape, cups, hot glue, and straws. Next, the kids used 3D pens to create a Halloween project - ghost, jack-o-lantern, bat, spider, skeleton. Currently they are working with squishy circuits. When using squishy circuits, they have to use conductive and insulating play-doh to create a circuit using lights, beepers, and vibration boxes. *Disclaimer - I have taken over 150 pictures, but I am only allowed to share 10, so not everyone will be pictured. More pictures to come later in the year after we complete more projects/activities.

The theme for the evenings game will be "Pink Out" as the FB team will be wearing pink jerseys to promote awareness for breast cancer. We encourage all in attendance to wear pink to support the cause. Additionally, each player was given the opportunity to list the name of someone they are "playing in honor of" on the back of their jersey. Prior to the game we will be announcing those names. If you, or someone you know, would like a name announced, please contact the Edmunds Central School office at 605-287-4251 by the end of the day Thursday. Thank you and Go Thunder!
