The Society, in collaboration with the Town Historian, plays an active role in sharing the heritage of the Town with the students of the Edinburg Common School. Each year fourth graders visit both museums and participate in historic building and site tours. The "Nellie Tyrrell Award" is given to the 4th grade student showing the most interest in and study of history. Awarded in June, the 2008 recipient was Zachary Whitman. In addition, the Town Historian makes slide show presentations on early Edinburg subjects to various grade levels during the school year. Books of local historical interest are also purchased by the Society and given to the school library.
