If you would like to assist us, please bring your donations of granola bars and juice boxes to the main office by February 27th. Please limit your donations to only granola bars and juice boxes.

Hooray for Teachers

Nominate Your Favorite!

As we approach the birthday of Thomas Edison, February 11th, our thoughts turn toward the many teachers we have interacted with over the years, those who bring the Edison message and spirit to their students. Edison realized the value of education and often spoke out about the need to get the young ones to think and engage their creativity. We would like to recognize the special accomplishments of these Edison cheerleaders, those teachers who personify the Edison spirit and give their students an invaluable lifetime lesson. Take a moment and drop us a note about a teacher you know or work with who gives their students this kind of inspiration. Email info@thomasedison.org with a brief summary about this teacher and why you think they deserve to be recognized. We will do the rest!
