Edwardsburg High School Reviews
Rating 3.53 out of 5 270 reviews
Edwardsburg High School holds its teachers, staff and students to a level of excellence that is superior to other schools in our area. Edwardsburg High School connects students with the community through sports, clubs, extra curriculars, and even as a part of classwork. Opportunities for college credits are built into students' schooldays, whether it is through Southwest Michigan College, Glen Oaks Community College, Indiana University South Bend, Elkhart Area Career Center with Ivy Tech Community College, and Advanced Placement courses. Despite these opportunities offered, there are some missing aspects to prepare students for life outside of highschool: students aren't encouraged to pursue internships and job fairs and career exploration opportunities are sparse and inconsistent. There is significant talk and mention of students going on to college, university, trade school and the military, however students are left to ask questions and pursue their interests on their own.
The best thing about Edwardsburg schools is their ideals on pride, passion, and purpose. I have never seen a school that is so proud of their students, from athletics to academics. Our faculty highlights students by nominating them for athlete of the week, giving them a shoutout in the announcements, or giving them an award at one of our many athletic banquets. As well as athletic recognition, they give the academic award every year to students who show exceptional promise in the classroom as well as having an undergraduate banquet every spring. Our teachers are so engaged and focused on our success. For example, last year we were put in a position as students where we almost had to take a science class online, but two other science teachers volunteered to take on an extra class to ensure we got the in-person education we needed. When you walk into the school, you will see staff and students in their Eddie gear with their head up at 7:30am walking with a purpose.
I really enjoyed going to Edwardsburg.I just graduated this year and I’m very glad I went there.The dress code is relaxed and it’s easy to meet new people.A lot of the teachers are really nice and love to help out.My favorite part was the duel enrollment program.It allowed me to take art classes at SMC, gaining college class credits while I learned new things.Edwardsburg has been important in helping me grow and discover myself.I wouldn’t be who I am today without many of my old teachers.I am going to miss Edwardsburg,however,every school has issues.These issues were mostly students.Bullying was rare-but it did happen.Edwardsburg has a huge drug issue.Senior hall smells like weed sometimes,and vaping in the bathrooms.Dogs should come more often to try and fix it.The school handled queer people poorly-trans in particular.They are better, but I think they need an LGBT club to help students feel accepted,and help the school learn how to better handle queer students.Overall,I recommend it.
