PURPOSE
The Edgewood High School Parent Community (EPC, formerly the EHS Auxiliary) is composed of parents/guardians and friends of Edgewood who provide volunteer support and communication beneficial to students, staff and parents. It exists to encourage and foster a spirit of
cooperation with and support to the staff and promote understanding and goodwill on behalf of EHS. Through your child(ren)'s enrollment, you are automatically members of the Edgewood Parent community!

MEETINGS
Meetings are on second Tuesday of each month at 1:30 p.m. in the Library Conference Room. The EPC president is responsible for emailing an agenda 5-7 days prior to each meeting. Please e-mail her with corrections or changes, or to let her know if you will not be attending. Meeting minutes are available from the EPC president.

The EPC's help is vital on Grandparents Day!
