    Fall Spirit Sale  Through September 25

    *There is a change to Student Driver Registration: All students who plan to drive to school must have a Parking Permit Registration on file with the school even if the car has been previously registered by another EHS student/sibling and already has a parking tag. Every car in the student parking lot must be registered to the current driver. Parents can find and fill out this form in Harmony Family Access with the registration paperwork. Any student who has already received a tag for a car registered to them after filling out the old Google Form, does not need to redo the form in Harmony.

    • Students who have registered as drivers in a previous year and have not changed vehicles are not required to register again.
    • After you have filled out the form in Harmony, bring your driver’s license and $1 cash to Mrs. Johnson in the school office ASAP to receive your sticker.

    Chromebook Protection: Parents/Guardians, use this link to sign up for the chromebook protection plan. It is HIGHLY recommended. The deadline is September 30.

    STUDENT ACTIVITIES

    Curious Wednesday: Are you someone who loves haunted houses? Or do you have a favorite podcast  you listen to? If you have knowledge of either of these topics, please see Mrs. Van Allen in the library. She is preparing for next month’s Curious Wednesdays, and she needs students and staff who know about area commercial haunted houses or school-appropriate podcasts.

    Boys Volleyball: The IHSAA has officially made boys volleyball a spring sport starting this year. Edgewood will be fielding a team and will begin open workouts in October. If you are interested in playing, sign up at Mr. Jones’s desk in the front office.

    Mental Health Club: New club opportunity starting at EHS this year. This club will meet to reduce stigma and spread awareness about mental health at our school. Our goal is to empower students and create a culture of peer support at Edgewood. Email Mrs. Howard and Ms. Vriesman with any questions or to join!

    National Honor Society: NHS will meet on the first Thursday of each month in the auditorium from 7-7:15 AM.

    EXTENDED OPPORTUNITIES

    The Bloomington Sunrise Rotary Club would like to sponsor two students for an RYLA event, which will take place at Bradford Woods this fall. The RYLA program encourages youth to take on leadership roles and learn about the service objectives and programs of the Rotary Club.  Most of the time is spent on interactive outdoor and team building activities, along with interaction with students from other high schools in the southern part of Indiana. This opportunity is open to freshmen, sophomores, and juniors.

    The application forms and more detailed information are on the Rotary Club district website http://rotary6580.org/rylaphp.php.   You may also see Mrs. Van Allen in the library for contact information for a Rotary Club member who can answer your questions.
