2023 Back to School Night
Welcome, Thomas A. Edison High School Parents and Guardians, to our Back to School Night. You had the opportunity to attend our in-person back-to-school night on September 7, 2023, but in case you could not attend or needed to relisten to some of the information from BTSN we have created a online platform to do so. You will be able to listen to messages from our School Board members, our Principal Mrs. Amanda Burke, our administrative team, our student services team, all of our teachers and support staff.
You will be accessing pre-recorded videos, so please sit back and enjoy our virtual back-to-school night! (Minus the running from class to class within the changing time 😊) Eagle Pride!
If at any time during the year you would like to have a parent-teacher conference, please contact the teacher directly or your student’s counselor.
