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.

I have been in Edison high for over 3 years and am currently in my final year. I have taken multiple honors and AP courses over the past 3 years and have grown as. a student and a person. Academic starting off was not a strong point, but has gotten stronger over my years at Edison High school. These years are crucial and a time that I will remember for the coming years.
