FROM THE PRINCIPAL’S DESK: CELEBRATING CULTURE AND LANGUAGE THROUGH THE ARTS We had a very moving and well-attended Noche de César Chávez event last Friday. In addition to the opportunity to share “comida y conversación,” Chiara Arroyo and Colleen Londoño presented a slide show about the annual Edison César Chávez service project assisting Corazon de Vida orphanages. They showed photos from the trip that approximately 50 Edison families took earlier this month to deliver supplies and visit the children at the orphanage and spoke about the visits that college students from Corazon de Vida have made to Edison. Jacqueline Fuentes and our nd 2 grade teachers and students shared an amazing concert that brought down the house! A combination of some original text created by the students and set to music, and a collection of meaningful songs, culminating with Somos Americanos and the students holding up flags of the Americas and the UFW flag created an emotional and beautiful program – with two encores! Thank you Maestras Fuentes, Jimenez, nd Melendez and Martinez. The 2 grade songwriting residency was made possible by funds received from SMMEF. If you missed the concert (or want to see it again!) visit https://vimeo.com/123032440. Thanks to Michel Pacifici for sharing the video he shot of the concert. th This week we are preparing for our annual production of the 5 Grade Play. The play, Cambia Todo Cambia, shows the power of theater over the ages – from ancient mythology and fables, through Shakespeare, to the Diary of Anne Frank. Things Change is inspired in the ever-evolving history of humankind and its theatre. By re-telling these tales on stage, our students can appreciate the dilemmas of extraordinary characters and th the eras they lived in. As the 5 graders’ time to bid farewell to Edison approaches, more than ever, the musical theme of the play reflects on the natural process we all go through in which everything changes. We are grateful to PS Arts and the support of SMMEF which makes Edison’s 30week K-5 Theater program possible. Edison is fortunate to have had this program and our wonderful theater arts teacher Martha Ramirez Oropeza for over 10 years. Theater classes are conducted entirely in Spanish and provide our students with another way to grow their Spanish language arts skills, and develop public speaking skills and self-confidence. Thank you also to parents Pilar Guzman (producer) and Annie Dunn (costumes) for their important work on the play. Please come join us for the Thursday evening, March 26 performance from 6:30-8:30 pm. in the Edison cafetorium. March 30-April 10 Spring Break Campus closed

DEL ESCRITORIO DE LA DIRECTORA: Celebrando Cultura y Lenguaje Por Medio de las Artes Tuvimos un conmovedor y bien asistido evento de Noche de César Chávez el viernes pasado. En adición a la oportunidad de compartir “comida y conversación,” Chiara Arroyo y Colleen Londoño presentaron una presentación de fotos sobre el proyecto anual de servicio de César Chávez de Edison asistiendo a los orfelinatos de Corazón de vida. Mostraron fotos del paseo que aproximadamente 50 familias de Edison tomaron a principios de este mes para entregar los materiales y visitar a los niños en el orfelinato y hablaros sobre las visitas que los estudiantes en la universidad de Corazón de Vida han hecho a Edison. ¡Jacqueline Fuentes y nuestras maestras de 2º grado y los estudiantes compartieron un concierto sorprendente que “tumbó la casa”! ¡Una combinación de algunos textos originales creados por estudiantes y puestos a música, y una colección de canciones significantes, culminando con Somos Americanos y los estudiantes mostrando banderas de las Américas y la bandera de UFW crearon un programa emocional y hermoso – con dos repeticiones! La clase de escribir canciones de 2º grado fue posible por los fondos recibidos de SMMEFF. Si perdieron el concierto (¡o lo quieren ver de nuevo!) visiten http://vimeo.com/123032440. Gracias a Michel Pacifici por compartir el video que tomó del concierto. Esta semana nos estamos preparando para nuestra producción anual de la Obra de 5º Grado. La obra, Cambia Todo Cambia, demuestra el poder del teatro a través de los tiempos – desde la mitología antigua y las fábulas, hasta Shakespeare, al Diario de Anne Frank. Este cambio es inspirado en la continuamente evolucionando historia de la humanidad y su teatro. Al re-contar los cuentos en el escenario, nuestros estudiantes pueden apreciar los dilemas de los personajes extraordinarios y las eras en las cuales vivieron. Mientras se acerca el tiempo de la despedida de los estudiantes del 5º grado, más que nunca, el tema musical de la obra refleja sobre el proceso natural que todos pasamos cuando todo cambia. Estamos agradecidos con PS Arts y el apoyo de SMMEF los cuales hacen posible el programa de teatro de 30 semanas para los estudiantes de K – 5 grado. Edison es afortunada de tener este programa y a nuestra maravillosa maestra de artes de teatro Martha Ramírez Oropeza por más de 10 años. Las clases de teatro son conducidas completamente en español y les provee a nuestros estudiantes con otra manera de aumentar sus habilidades del Idioma Español, y desarrollar habilidades de hablar en público y confianza propia. Gracias también a las mamás Pilar Guzman (productora) y Annie Dunn (vestuario) por su trabajo importante en la obra. Por favor vengan y acompáñenos el jueves, 26 de marzo, para la presentación de 6:30 – 8:30 pm en la cafetería de Edison.

March 24, 2015 Dear Edison Families of Students in Kindergarten Through Grade 4: If you are planning to have your child or children continue to attend Edison next year, please fill out and return the form below by next Friday, April 18th. That may sound like a lot of time, but it’s actually only the Friday after we return from Spring Break. Getting an accurate count of projected enrollment for next year affects the number of teachers that SMMUSD authorizes for our school and the way that we configure classes (i.e., how many classes we need and at what grades). So your response helps us make the best plans for our students. I appreciate your candor and will treat your response as confidential in case you have not yet told your child about an upcoming move. For families who reside within the SMMUSD, returning the attachment below is enough for your child to continue at Edison. You do not need to renew an intra-district permit if you live outside the immediate Edison neighborhood. When you enrolled at Edison, we became your home school. For families who do not live in the SMMUSD and whose child/children are attending Edison with an interdistrict attendance permit, there are April 18. Second, you do not need to reapply for an interdistrict permit through your home district, but you must return a Verification of Continuing Enrollment to SMMUSD. These forms have already been sent to families with children attending on permit and are due to SMMUSD by June 1, 2015. If you have misplaced the form, you can get another on the district website (www.smmusd.org) . Go to Quick Links, Permits and then print, sign and return. If you do not have access to the Internet, our community liaison Yoly Gutierrez can help you (310) 828-0335, ext. 61-307. If you are enrolling a sibling in Kindergarten and live outside of SMMUSD or if you used to reside in SMMUSD but have moved outside the district, you will have to apply to your district of residence for an exit permit and fill out a permit application with SMMUSD. If you have questions, please see Yoly. Please let us know if you are planning for your child(ren) to continue at Edison next year or if you’re planning a change of schools. Complete and return this form to your child’s teacher by April 18. If you have more than one child at Edison, use a different form for each child. Thank you.

Lori S. Orum, Principal

24 de marzo, 2015 Estimadas Familias de Edison de Estudiantes en los Grados Kindergarten hasta 4º: Si ustedes están planeando que sus hijos continúen asistiendo a Edison el próximo año, por favor complete y entregue la forma de abajo a más tardar el próximo viernes, 18 de abril. Eso parece ser mucho tiempo, pero es actualmente el primer viernes después de que regresamos de las Vacaciones de Primavera. Consiguiendo una cuenta exacta de la registración para el próximo año afecta la cantidad de maestros que SMMUSD autorizará para nuestra escuela y la manera en la cual configuramos las clases (por ejemplo, cuántas clases necesitaremos y qué grados). Así es que su respuesta nos ayuda hacer mejores planes para nuestros estudiantes. Yo les agradezco su sinceridad y trataré sus respuestas con confidencialidad en caso que ustedes aún no les hayan dicho a sus hijos sobre una mudanza que se acerque. Para las familias quienes viven dentro de SMMUSD, entregar la forma de abajo es suficiente para que su hijo/a continúe en Edison. Ustedes no necesitan renovar un permiso de intra-distrito si viven fuera de la vecindad inmediata de Edison. Cuando ustedes se registraron en Edison, nos hicimos su escuela de residencia. Para las familias quienes no viven dentro de SMMUSD y quienes sus hijos están asistiendo a Edison con un permiso de asistencia de interdistrito, hay dos partes para continuar la registración de su hijo/a para el próximo año. Primera, entregue la forma de abajo antes del 18 de abril. Segundo, ustedes no necesitan volver a solicitar un permiso de interdistrito de su distrito de residencia, pero debe entregar una Verificación de Registración Continua a SMMUSD. Estas formas ya se les mandaron a las familias con niños asistiendo con un permiso y deben ser entregadas a SMMUSD a más tardar el 1 de junio, 2015. Si ustedes creen que perdieron la forma, pueden obtener otra en la página de internet del distrito (www.smmusd.org). Vayan a “Quick Links”, Permits y después impriman, firmen y entréguenlas. Si no tienen acceso a internet, nuestra comunitaria bilingüe Yoly Gutiérrez les puede ayudar (310) 828-0335, extensión 61-307 Si ustedes estarán registrando a un hermanito/a en Kindergarten y viven fuera de SMMUSD o si usted antes vivía dentro de SMMUSD pero se han mudado fuera del distrito, ustedes tendrán que solicitar un permiso de salida de su distrito de residencia y completar una solicitud de permiso con SMMUSD. Si tienen preguntas, por favor comuníquense con Yoly. Por favor avísenos si ustedes están planeando que sus hijos continúen en Edison el próximo año o si ustedes están planeando un cambio de escuelas. Completen y entreguen esta forma al maestro/a de su hijo/a a más tardar el 18 de abril. Si tienen más de un hijo en Edison, usen una forma diferente para cada niño/a. Gracias.
