Hornet Cares Fund and Immigration Resources
The Hornet Cares Fund can accept tax‑deductible financial contributions that support a wide range of needs for Edina Public Schools' families and staff experiencing temporary hardship — helping ensure stability, dignity, and continued access to school and community resources. Give here. In addition, the site includes opportunities to volunteer and get involved in support efforts throughout Edina and the greater Twin Cities area.
If you need help, please reach out to a school social worker, cultural liaison, school administrator, or any school teacher. They are ready to support you and provide you with information. Visit Immigration Resources on the EPS website for more information.

March 9 through 13

YOUR DONATION SUPPORTS OUR SCHOOL
A $25 (suggested) contribution per family goes a long way towards providing the Cornelia PTO with funds we use throughout the year for things like teacher grants, teacher appreciation, and PTO activities and events. However, no financial contribution is required to join the PTO or participate in PTO-sponsored activities. We want all Cornelia families to participate in our school in whatever way they are able.
