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.

My experience at Edgewater high school was amazing. Freshman and sophomore year I didn't know many people but everyone was so fun and welcoming that I immediately made lots of friends in those two years and I stuck with them until senior year. My favorite class was Ceramics and my teacher was amazing and made me see my passion for art. I loved Edgewater and would recommend it to anyone who needs a good school to go to.

My overall experience with Edgewater was good, I had my own personal family problems that stopped me from having a normal high school experience.

Being at Edgewater these past 4 years has been a great experience. I have learned so much academically and socially. Most of the teachers and staff here are great and have taught me alot. I've made lifelong friends here because of classes or sports I have joined. Edgewater really cares about their sport teams and I played soccer all 4 years and we have always had support from the school. I have experienced some bad things such as fights or teachers acting out of character but it is always handled and resolved by the staff. Overall I would recommend Edgewater to anyone because of the great times I've had with my time there.

The administration is very disorganized, and most of the teachers have no idea what they are doing. Also, a lot of times students will have to wait outside in the halls after class bell because a teacher isn't there to let them in. Online school through Edgewater is extra difficult because some teac...
