COMMUNITY SCHOOL LEARNING EXCHANGE

In partnership with Operation Warm, Edison Elementary, a United Way Community School, teamed up with New Motors Subaru to provide warm coats and shoes to more than 100 students this winter. The initiative was made possible through the generosity of New Motors Subaru and the time and care of their volunteer team.

Relationship Building: A Core Part of Edison
At Edison, relationship-building is a core part of their daily routines, from shaping policies based on community feedback to creating spaces for students, families, and staff to connect and support one another.

As one of the first schools in Erie County to adopt the Community School Model, Edison has had years to build a volunteer system that’s as intentional as it is impactful. And it shows.
