GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Good school I guess, there isn't really anything to it, it's one of the most average schools in NJ, but it definitely has a knack for producing talent.

Edison High School has a very caring administration that wants to see the best for the students. The teachers always seek the best for the students and go above and beyond for them. Students tend to be pretty involved and you will see someone be involved in something always.

I enjoyed my overall experience simply because of Mr. Ross, an amazing principal, and I met some of my closest friends at this institution.
