Edina Parent Communication Network (PCN) is back this fall with a forum!
Secrets to Getting the Sleep You and Your Child Need
Monday, October 4th
7:00pm
Virtual
Join Dr. Mary Sheedy Kurcinka, internationally recognized author of Sleepless in America and Raising Your Spirited Child to discover how to:
- Know if your child or you are suffering from sleep deprivation. (Children often do not tell us they are tired – instead they show us through challenging behaviors.)
- Identify the daily “little things” that innocently disrupt sound sleep.
- Establish a practical routine that protects sleep – even in a world that is constantly “on.”
- Build a community that recognizes the importance of sleep for the health and well-being of all.
This event will not be recorded, so please join us at any time during the event.
for more information or to volunteer.

The PSAT is a Pre-SAT, is administered to students who register for the test. Registration is held at the high school usually during the third week in September; the test is given to Juniors in October and Sophomores in April. It is recommended that college bound juniors take this test to prepare for the SAT, which they may take later in their junior year; some academically strong sophomores may also choose to take the PSAT. Juniors will receive predicted results for the SAT. Scores are distributed to students shortly after Winter Break.
On Wednesday, October 13, 2021 the PSAT test will be administered from 8:30am until 11:30am to all registered Juniors. Registration is closed , students had the opportunity to sign up the week of September 17th. Students are to bring their admission ticket (if ticket not found, bring school ID).
**Students are to bring two #2 pencils, a calculator, and admission ticket and a picture ID. They will not be allowed into the test if they do not have some form of identification or admission ticket.

Candi Davenport MS, LADC is in her third year providing Chemical Health support services to Edina Public Schools. Candi has 23 years of experience working with adolescents in the field of chemical health, including working in treatment programs and educational settings.
As the Chemical Health Counselor, she provides direct service, intervention and education to students, families and staff. She also works with students who have violated the schools chemical use policy, including vaping, smoking and drug use, additionally offering family resources and supports. Candi believes that there is a strong and often complicated link between chemical use and mental health, therefore it is necessary to addressing them together.
Co-located services is a successful model that takes down barriers and increases the student’s ability to access services. Similar to current model that offers Mental Health services, however, Chemical Health services are free and 100% confidential. Candi has an office at Edina High School and is available on Tuesdays and Thursdays to students and families.
