EDGE Exhibition a Success!
The first EDGE exhibition event was a tremendous success. Over 400 people attended the event and were able to see the incredible learning of our students. We are proud of all EDGE students for making our first exhibition a great success. Congratulations to EDGE seniors, Andrew, Patrick, and Taylor, for initiating and organizing the event!
Health and Well-Being Projects Underway
EDGE students are currently exploring projects on the topic of Health and Well-Being. Health is incredibly important at every stage of life. We encourage you to talk to your student about their current research and project focus. Take it a step further by setting some health and wellness goals as a family!
Learning Progress and Semester Grades
As we wrap up Semester 1, students should submit all evidence of learning by the December deadlines established by EDGE teachers. All students will receive a semester letter grade based upon their demonstrated mastery of the competencies for each class. Students have had the opportunity to show evidence of learning throughout the semester and partner with their teachers on personal learning plans. It's important that all learning evidence is submitted as soon as possible. We're excited to kick off Semester 2 in January!
EDGE Information Session December 7th
Do you know a student that might be interested in joining EDGE? Invite them to attend an upcoming info session. We will host an information session about EDGE for students interested in applying to EDGE for the 22-23 school year on December 7th at 6 pm at Liberty High School. Thank you to our current EDGE students who have volunteered to participate in these events and share about your EDGE experience.

New EDGE Course Offerings for 22-23
In January, we will ask all current EDGE students to decide and let us know if they are committing to returning to EDGE for the 22-23 school year. We wanted to make you aware of our course offerings for the 22-23 school year. We are excited to add several course offerings for next year!
