FROM THE SUPERINTENDENT

Edina Public Schools places a high value on building strong partnerships between the school and the home to advance student learning. Our Edina Family Center offers services and programs that support this important relationship for your child’s future.

I encourage families to be involved and engaged in the Center and their child’s learning. This involvement allows you to help shape the school-home partnership that will be necessary as your child journeys forward into the dynamic and exciting world of learning. This “teaming effort” is one of the keys to the success of our school district.

I wish you and your family a wonderful experience at the Edina Family Center.

Ric Dressen, Ed.D.
