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.

Overall, with being a student at EHS for my fourth year this year, as a senior, I enjoy every minute of it. Everyone is welcoming, helpful, kind, and just outgoing. I am currently looking for scholarships to help out with payment and the school sends out every week for students to apply.

I have loved going to Edwardsville! I love that the school is getting remodeled right now too! Because the population of the school is growing there is a need for a larger space.

It was fine but the school had a huge ego attached to it and it wasn't really something that I wanted any part of. I just wanted to graduate, and it felt like it just wanted me to give it money and love it.

Been with this district over 25 years. Excellent in every category. Wouldn’t put my kids anywhere else!

My children have very different interests and personalities, and both loved EHS. The school has a wide variety of clubs and activities. Academically, they were incredibly well prepared for college.

Shouldn’t even be considered a school. They only focus on sports and race sensitivity training. Do not send your kid here if you want them to succeed at academics.

Most of the teachers seem to truly care about the students. I did experience an extremely difficult administrator that I don't think cared about the kids.
