A Message from the Principal
Tiger Pride. Tiger Nation
Dear Edgewood Families,
Welcome to a new and exciting school year at Edgewood Elementary! I am honored and immensely privileged to join this wonderful community as your new principal. I am thrilled to embark on this journey with you and look forward to getting to know each of you personally. Together, we will create an environment where every scholar feels safe, valued, and inspired to learn.
This year marks the beginning of a stronger, more vibrant Edgewood, built on our new core principles of being Caring, Understanding, Brave, and Successful
– The Edgewood Tiger CUBS.
These principles will guide our daily interactions and help us build a strong, supportive community. Our dedicated staff will ensure every scholar has the tools and encouragement to reach their full potential.
At Edgewood, academics are priority ONE. We aim to provide a more rigorous and engaging learning experience that challenges our scholars and supports their intellectual growth. Your support and involvement are crucial to our success. Together, we can create a strong partnership that benefits our scholars and enhances their educational journey.
I understand the importance of having a school that feels like a second home. I promise to make Edgewood a place where your child not only learns but also feels loved and supported every day. We will encourage our scholars to take on new challenges, celebrate their successes, and grow from their experiences.
I look forward to meeting each of you and working together to make this year a success for our scholars. Your active involvement and feedback are essential, and I warmly invite you to participate in school activities and events. Together, we will create a supportive learning environment where our children can truly thrive. My door is always open for any questions, concerns, or ideas you may have.
Thank you for trusting us with your child’s education. Let’s make this school year one filled with joy, learning, and growth!
-Mr. Ernest Cornely
