Edison high school helps students pursue their futures with incredible support from the staff. The school is very diverse, and the administration actively helps students of color and LGBT students feel safe in the school environment. Additionally, the academics are student-based, with a large variety of class levels, subjects, and paces. Overall, my experience here has been nothing short of excellent, even throughout the pandemic. With awesome school spirit, school events, and a school community, all students have a chance to thrive here.
Edison High School is really diverse in thought, look, and personality. That makes the community a good spot for learning as it is easy to learn about others and yourself with such diversity surrounding you. This helps prepare for the real world where you are going to encounter a variety of thought and ideas. Learning to understand and acknowledge a diverse selection of people and their adjoining world view's is especially important in entertaining compassion and good sportsmanship.
