💡 Better Together!
During 1st period intervention time, some of our awesome 8th graders have been mentoring and working alongside 6th grade students in math. With guidance from Mrs. Julius, they collaborate on different math strategies—building confidence, sharing ideas, and supporting each other along the way.
We are so proud of the teamwork and dedication these students are showing. It’s a wonderful example of our Edison DREAM in action—Driven, Respectful, Excellence, Act Responsibly, Motivated.
📸 Check out the pictures to see our students in action!
