American Mathematics Competition (AMC)
The American Mathematics Competitions are fun for all students who like math problem solving and enjoy challenging themselves to do the best they can.

Both the AMC 10 and the AMC 12 are 25-question, 75-minute multiple-choice contests. The AMC 12 covers the high school mathematics curriculum, excluding calculus. The AMC 10 covers subject matter normally associated with grades 9 and 10. To challenge students at all grade levels and with varying mathematical skills, the problems range from fairly easy to extremely difficult. Approximately 12 questions are common to both contests.

Typically, students who score in the top 5% on the AMC 12 or the top 2.5% on the AMC 10 are invited to take the American Invitational Mathematics Exam (AIME).

Students may not use calculators on the contests.

Competition dates are:
AMC-A: Thursday February 7
&
AMC-B: Wednesday February 13

Click on the link then select AMC; on the left side, select one of the two tabs for ONE AMC or TWO AMC s.

Age restrictions apply; see webpage for details.
Edina High School PTO
Vaping: Alarming Warnings and What to Know  

The PTO Board invites all our school stakeholders to learn why the F.D.A. is targeting vaping, alarmed by teenage use. We see it at our Edina Schools increasingly. Here’s a chance to learn the facts. Please join us.

Tuesday, Feb. 26,
7 - 8:30 pm
EHS Fick Auditorium

Speakers include Principal Andy Beaton, joined by Edina Police School Resource Officer Joe Delgehausen, and Chris Lawler, a licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor. After the formal presentations about the vaping, its prevalence among our middle school to high schoolers, and health risks, there will be time for Q&A with parents. 
EHS Parent Mosaic
Join the EHS Parent Mosaic!

The EHS Parent Mosaic is a group of parents who have committed to building relationships cross culturally throughout the EHS parent community. We believe that the more EHS parents know each other, especially those they might not interact with otherwise, the more they understand each other, and the stronger our community will be. We are a team of parents who have become friends. Mosaic parents meet one evening per month throughout the school year. We listen to each other’s stories, we learn together and from each other, and we laugh together. We have found that we have a lot in common! 
And, there is also great food involved!!! In our meetings, we do not focus on politics or current events. We focus on ourselves and our own personal growth. We focus on our kids and our school. We don’t focus on who is right or wrong. We focus on listening and learning from each other’s experience. In addition to our monthly meetings, we volunteer together at school events such as Get Connected Day, Curriculum night, and Finals.      

We meet in the EHS Commons. 
Our remaining meeting dates for the 2018-2019 school year are:
January 14, from 6:30 – 8:00
February 11, from 6:30 – 8:00
March 11, from 6:30 – 8:00
April 17, from 6:30 – 8:00
May 20, from 6:30 – 8:00

New members join us all year long. We ask members to share what they learn and invite their friends to join us too. No level of commitment is too great or too small. Just be part of the conversation. If you have any questions or would like to join us, please contact Assistant Principal, Mike Pretasky, 952-848-3140 or
co-chair, Angella McGarvey, 612-310-3909.
