Excellent academics and skilled teachers, especially for advanced courses. A little overboard at times, though, as there's certainly a pressure within the school culture and amongst students to load your schedule up with difficult courses and be a star student just to seem Ivy-worthy. Unfortunately, recent budget cuts have made that harder since now it's become more difficult to transfer out of classes that prove to be too challenging, something I hope changes in the future.
The concert band program is very good and is lead by some good directors. The marching band on the other hand is not the greatest, which sucks since it is mandatory for sophomores and those in the upper two ensembles.
While I cannot speak for all of the student counselors, my own counselor has been extremely helpful with everything I've needed.
The school is in a well-off, upper middle class, white neighborhood so expect white middle class kids to pretty much make up the entire student body.

Edina High School has some good qualities, but also a lot of bad ones. On the negative side, it's a completely non-progressive school that tries it's hardest to appear modern. There are a lot of teachers who don't teach the curriculum, and it tends to be an unwelcoming environment for BIPOC students. It's nearly impossible to change your schedule once you've chosen your classes, which you are required to choose half a year before- so if you are struggling with a class, you can't really transfer out (although they do have tutoring and counseling resources). However, on the positive side, they have a decent-sized catalog of classes to choose from, as well as recently remodeled classrooms and common spaces. They also have a fair amount of extracurricular activities to choose from (though the majority of these activities are not widely advertised and can be very difficult to find). They also have plenty of events.
Great teachers! Every teacher cares about each student and wants them to succeed. There are so many resources that are provided by the school such as teacher office hours, peer tutoring, and many other resources.
