🐄 Dairy Day at Edison! 🥛
Today we had a special visit from Suzie with Southwest Dairy Farmers, who brought her Mobile Dairy Classroom to our school! She introduced us to Dixie, her beautiful Jersey cow, and taught our students all about where milk comes from, how dairy farmers care for their cows, and why dairy products are such an important part of a healthy diet.
It was a fun and educational experience for everyone! A big thank you to Southwest Dairy Farmers for bringing this exciting and hands-on lesson to our school! 💛🐮

🍂 Crocktober at Edison Elementary! 🍲
On October 24th, our amazing teachers and staff celebrated our 2nd Annual Crocktober with a table full of delicious homemade dishes! From three kinds of meatballs to chicken and noodles, tortilla soup, hot brownies, caramel apple dump cake, pumpkin rolls, banana pudding, and cake—everything was absolutely yummy!
Everyone voted, and the winner of this year’s Crocktober was Jennifer Coon with her Slow Cooker Caramel Apple Dump Cake! 🏆 Mrs. Coon won a $25 Santa Fe Steakhouse gift card, generously provided by Mrs. Shelton.
We love events like this—nothing brings our Edison family together quite like good food and great fellowship! ❤️

Slow Cooker Caramel Apple Dump Cake Recipe
This Slow Cooker Caramel Apple Dump Cake Recipe might just be my easiest dessert recipe EVER! Just 5 ingredients and 5-minute prep and you've got a DELICIOUS ooey-gooey, Fall dessert.
Prep Time: 5 minutes Cook Time: 5 hours Ingredients
▢ 1 (20 oz) can apple pie filling you COULD use 2 if you want more apple, but I like 1
▢ ½ cup chopped pecans plus more for serving
▢ ½ cup jarred caramel ice cream topping plus more for serving
▢ 1 (15.25 oz) box spice cake mix or yellow cake mix (not made just the dry cake mix)
▢ 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter cubed
▢ Vanilla ice cream for serving
Instructions
Grease crockpot with cooking spray.
Dump in apple pie filling and spread with a spatula to evenly cover the bottom of the crockpot.
Top filling with pecans and then caramel.
Pour in cake mix and use your hands to spread it out evenly and gently press it down.
Top with cubed butter.
Cover and cook on LOW 4-6 hours (5 was perfect for me), or until cake is cooked to your liking.
Scoop and serve with vanilla ice cream and an extra sprinkle of pecans and drizzle of caramel.

Exciting times at Edison today! The Chrysler Tower is going up across the street! Students have been able to watch the crane action all day! The Bristow Chrysler Tower is a historic 102-foot tall advertising sign in Bristow, Oklahoma, that is currently undergoing a $1 million restoration and relocation project to be moved across the street from Edison on Route 66. Originally built in 1949 for the Beard Motor Company, the tower was one of the tallest freestanding neon signs in the country. We have loved watching the progress!
