Community Business Partners with Edison

Central Christian Church volunteers invaded Edison for their annual day of service on April 7th.  30 volunteers came to Edison to build, paint, construct and clean on our campus.  We are so lucky to have their support in our community.

 

Edison hosted JA Day with volunteers from Toyota.  Toyota employees visited classes to teach Edison students all about business, economics, community resources, and careers.  Toyota sponsored a yummy lunch for our staff as well.  Our kids really enjoy having our guest teachers for the day and we appreciate Junior Achievement and Toyota for supporting our school.
