I have updated to Firefox AND I tried IE8. I once had an "easy edit" button but I no longer have one. Any ideas? Do you find this valuable?

Sometimes, having an Easy Edit button depends on your ranking on that site. Some sites allow all users that join to edit pages, which would allow all users to have an easy edit button. However, some sites have permissions set so only writers and up can edit the page. If you are a registered user on a writer only site, you cannot edit the pages. Do you find this valuable?

This site was set up by our technology teacher. (I'm a fourth grade teacher.) Teachers use it to reserve the tech. lab. I once the easy edit button, now I don't. Can I assume it's something she needs to fix to allow me to write on the site? I have shared this with her as well and she said it was my browser. I told her even after updating my browser that I still don't have the easy edit button. What should she do in order to get my easy edit button back?

It looks like you have more than one account:
bbrown63 - registered user
brown63 - writer

If you are signed in with the account that has writer level permissions you should see the EasyEdit button. Or, you can have someone promote your second account to writer status as well.
