💻 From Monday 2/24 to Monday 3/3, scheduling will be open on Parent Portal. Please go in with your families and choose your top 3 elective choices. A few reminders:
-Please choose your top 3 choices wisely. ANY of these choices may be your elective next year.
-Scheduling is NOT on a first come first serve basis! How fast you get your choices in does not impact the likelihood of you getting that elective.
-The counselors will be visiting ALL students in PE and Health classes in March to review your elective choices. Any questions you have about electives can be answered during these meetings.
-If you are unable to access Parent Portal to put in your elective choices, no need to panic! We can do it together during our meetings in March.
-This information was sent out to your parents and guardians with detailed instructions on how to access scheduling in the Parent Portal.

This means that eligible students can receive lunch in a manner that aligns with their religious observance beginning the week of Monday, March 3, 2025, through Friday, March 28, 2025.

ETEA Volleyball Fundraiser - A Night of Fun & Community!
An incredible night at the ETEA Volleyball Fundraiser! Thank you to all the families, community members, and participants who came out to support!
A huge shoutout to the ETEA for organizing such a fantastic event that brings our community together. Looking forward to next year’s competition!
Last night, Edison High School's Lemelson-MIT InvenTeam showcased their remarkable progress on an innovative project to mitigate pollution in New Jersey’s Raritan River, aiming to support both residents and local biodiversity.
One of only eight nationwide, the team was awarded a $7,500 grant from the Lemelson-MIT Program to develop an innovative solution to pollutants in the Raritan River, a crucial water source for over 1.8 million residents.
Thank you to everyone who attended and engaged with the team, asking insightful questions as they refine their project. Your support fuels their innovation!
Let’s celebrate these young problem-solvers as they work toward a cleaner, healthier future and prepare to present their final prototype on a national stage at MIT's EurekaFest this June.
