    Welcome to Principal’s Corner and to our Weekly Update. I apologize for not getting out the Weekly Update for last week. Unfortunately, I was at home sick. I am happy to report that I am now well and able to return to school. I have missed you all. I want to thank our EDMS staff for sticking together and supporting each other. We have had some days when we were short multiple substitute teachers and EAs and our staff stepped up to help in many ways. We are also very grateful for the kind notes we receive from students and parents. We are blessed to be part of the EDMS family. – Susanne Stroud, Principal
