After a great start of school for all of Edgemont, the EHS varsity teams proved their prowess on the athletic fields by winning all but one of their homecoming games last week. It was a great week for Edgemont athletics. Here are the results:

• Tuesday - Field Hockey vs. Ursuline: Score 3 to 1
• Wednesday - Volleyball vs. Tuckahoe: Score 3 to 0
• Thursday - Girls' Soccer vs. Mamaroneck: Score 2 to 1
• Friday- Football vs. Ardsley: Score 28 to 20
• Saturday- Boys' Soccer vs. New Rochelle: Score 0 to 1

The enthusiasm was high at Friday night's football game. Check out this cool video clip of Edgemont fans cheering a superb 50 yard defensive Edgemont touchdown!!! http://www.msgvarsity.com/westchester/edgemont-knocks-off-ardsley-1.658824

On Friday night October 14th the E Club will hold their second annual "Family Mini Golf Nite" at the Fairview Golf Center, Elmsford. The event will run from 5:50 to 9 pm and all proceeds benefit Edgemont Athletics. The cost is: $75 for family of 4, $10 for each additional person; $20 for singles. The fee covers unlimited golf and dinner. Contact Club President Mindy Brown at db20wood@gmail.com for more information.

Also on the calendar, parents at the elementary schools are invited to their children's grade coffee nights where they can meet their child's teacher and hear about the upcoming school year. Parent should check the Blue Book for the exact dates of their child's coffee night. On Thursday at the junior/senior high school, parents will attend "Back to School Night," when they actually follow an abbreviated version of their child's school schedule and get a true appreciation of what their child's day is like. Instead of switching periods every 44 minutes though, parents switch every 15 minutes. Student volunteers are always stationed around campus to help the inevitably lost parents find their classrooms. The evening commences at 7 pm in the school cafeteria with a reception hosted by the PTSA for all parents and staff members.
