Today we celebrate the incredible men and women who keep our students safe every single day. Whether rain or shine, hot or cold, our crossing guards greet families with a smile, guide children safely across busy streets, and help ensure a smooth start and end to every school day.
To all of our dedicated crossing guards: THANK YOU for your commitment, your kindness, and your unwavering focus on student safety. Our schools and communities are better because of you!


Mid-Year Data and Calendar Update
As you know, our students take a learning diagnostic three times a year. This information allows us to direct individual learning paths and also determine how we, as a school, are doing.
I am happy to report that Edwins' students performed VERY well on our midyear FAST diagnostic. When we compare our data to
last year, we are ahead midyear in nearly every subject and grade! Ask you child if they met their learning goal.
At Edwins we set GOALS because Goal Setters are Goal Getters! Our continued growth is a tribute to the students, teachers and families that make up the Edwins Community.
Check out the January 19th newsletter!
Thank you so much!!



Just a reminder that today (Monday) is a Teacher Workday/ Student Holiday and tomorrow (Tuesday) is a District-wide Professional Learning Day/ Student Holiday. We look forward to seeing the rest of our OCSD Family on Wednesday, rested, recharged, and ready to finish the year strong!

It’s almost time to celebrate the season! The Okaloosa County School District will be closed for Winter Break from December 22 – January 2.
➮ Schools & District Offices reopen: Monday, January 5
➮ Students return: Wednesday, January 7
Wishing you joy, peace, and a wonderful holiday season!

We’ve got three short weeks until the end of the first semester and the start of Winter Break—let’s make them count!
On Friday, December 19, most schools will dismiss slightly earlier than usual. Check out the adjusted times so you can plan ahead!



OCSD Family—be sure to set your clocks back one hour before going to bed on Saturday night, November 2. We “fall back” at 2:00 AM on Sunday, November 3. Enjoy the extra hour of rest, and we’ll see everyone bright and early on Monday!



Our daycare serves students from 6-8 am each morning and from 3-6 each day after school. Registration is $30 and our weekly rates are listed below. Our contract with ELC is in it's final stages and we hope to be approved at the next board meeting. We will then be able to take vouchers!! We will announce when this goes through. We are so excited to welcome Ms. Ebony Smith as our new Daycare Coordinator. She joins us with a wealth of experience and a love of children.

Internet speeds have been restored. Thank you, Cox, for your quick response! Have a great day, OCSD Family!
