No School on Monday
in honor of
Martin Luther King JR Day
|
Good afternoon, Eagles,
We are in the full swing of course registration, and this is a great time to keep the conversation going at home with your student about their plans for next year. As schedules start to take shape, we encourage students to think carefully about finding a healthy balance between academic rigor and the activities that matter to them.
Rigor is important, but so is being well rounded. Colleges, the military, and future employers are all looking for students who challenge themselves academically and also show commitment, leadership, and connection beyond the classroom. Clubs, activities, athletics, service, and the arts all play an important role in helping students grow and in building a strong sense of who they are.
We encourage students to find ways to get involved here at Edison, whether that means trying a new club, continuing with an activity they love, or giving back through outreach and service opportunities that support our community. These experiences matter, and they help make high school meaningful.
As we head into a long weekend, we honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his legacy. His words remain just as relevant today as ever:
“Everybody can be great, because everybody can serve.”
I hope you all have a restful weekend
Amanda Burke
Principal

Did Your Student Get a New Phone or Device?
For a distraction-free start to the New Year, please remind your student about FCPS' policy for cell phones and personal devices. This policy helps students focus, interact more with their peers and teachers, and build independent problem-solving skills.
Visit FCPS’ cell phone policy webpage for more information and answers to frequently asked questions, including:
- Exceptions for students with medical conditions or IEP/504 plans.
- Cell phone use on buses and field trips.
- Consequences for cell phone policy violations.
If you need to reach your student during the school day, please call our main office.
Enhancing Safety and Security for Staff and Students
School safety and security are being enhanced across FCPS with a new emergency management system. The system includes sensors installed in schools and a wearable emergency response button (ERB) for staff.
The button allows staff to quickly and discreetly request help and, once pressed, they provide location information within the school. The ERB will only work on school grounds and does not rely on cellular service. It is not meant to replace calling 911, but is an additional safety tool that can be used if calling 911 may not be safe or practical.
Learn more about the emergency management system. You may submit questions to the FCPS Chief of Safety and Security Office.
