A consistent bedtime can make it easier for students to wake up, get ready and arrive at school prepared to learn. Try limiting late-night distractions and getting backpacks ready before bedtime.

Campus counselors and other support staff can help students talk through big feelings, friendships, worries and challenges that may be affecting their school day.

Great habits start small. A quiet place to read, a regular homework time and a few minutes of practice each day can help young students become confident, independent learners. The habits they build today can travel with them all the way to graduation! e

Colorful. Balanced. Made for growing students. Edgewood ISD school meals include nutritious choices designed to fuel busy minds and bodies. Best of all, breakfast AND lunch are FREE for every student, every school day

Students learn more than reading, math, science and history at school. They also practice teamwork, communication, problem-solving and building friendships. Those experiences happen every day. Encourage your student to show up ready to learn, participate and connect.

Sometimes children show us how they’re feeling before they tell us. Pay attention to noticeable changes in play, sleep, appetite, energy, school behavior or interest in favorite activities. One change doesn’t necessarily mean something is wrong—but it can be a good reason to check in. Start with: “You seem different today. Want to talk?”

Future graduates show up! Every day at school gives young learners another opportunity to read, practice, ask questions and build skills they’ll use in the next grade—and someday on the graduation stage. One school day at a time, we’re building something BIG.

Safe bus rides start before students ever step on the bus. Help young riders learn to wait in a safe place, stay away from the roadway and wait for the bus to come to a complete stop before approaching. A few simple habits can make a big difference.
