New Edison/DPS Information From Edison’s PTA - Maybe your 2026 resolution is to feel more connected, get involved in your community, and give back in a meaningful way—without it feeling overwhelming. Joining the PTA is an easy, impactful way to do just that, and it truly makes a difference for our kids and our school. For just $10, PTA membership gives you a voice in how funds are spent, the changes and additions we make to our school, and insider insight into what’s happening in the building. Whether you’re able to volunteer a little or a lot, your membership helps support our school community and ensures parent voices are heard. https://edisondenver.givebacks.com/shop The February 3 PTA meeting is an important one. We’ll be discussing new initiatives for the rest of this year, as well as beginning conversations about what we want next year to look like for our kids, teachers, and school community. This is a chance to help shape what’s ahead. Childcare will be provided in the gym during the meeting.
