Miss Boltz led a fun and engaging counseling lesson in Read’s 1st grade class today. The students had a blast learning about the important role of the school counselor and how they can support them



As we start a new school year, we want to keep fresh in everyone’s mind the ways we communicate with families.
To streamline and enhance our communication, we will now be using the District App through Apptegy, which features a new tool called Rooms. Rooms will be the primary way for you to connect with teachers, stay updated on classroom activities, and receive important information.
In addition to using the Apptegy app, we encourage you to stay informed about school-wide news and updates by reading the Brave Bulletin. This weekly newsletter will be sent to your email and will provide you with essential information about Edwardsville Elementary.
We are committed to keeping you informed and involved in your child’s education. If you have any questions or need assistance , please reach out to the school office.
Thank you for your continued support!

REMINDER: There will be no school for all USD 204 students on September 2nd and 3rd. Classes will resume on Wednesday, September 4th. Wishing everyone a fun and safe long weekend!

The event wrapped up with celebrations, honoring our longest-serving staff and welcoming the new faces to our USD 204 family.

Here's what you can already find on our district app:
Live feed updates

Upcoming events
Breakfast and lunch menus
Push notifications for important updates
