- Reviewed by Teacher on November 03, 2009
- Rating:
(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - This is as fine a jr/sr high school as one can find in any location. The teachers are great. Students have to quality to get in . They have a rigorous work load
The teachers & students work closely
together. This is a better school than
West. The administration is
very qualified. The school is very
responsive to parents as well as any
internal situations that may arise.
The front office is friendly and the
staff very cordial. Having taught here
and West, I find Edgewood's
students to be more open & easy going while maintaining academic excellence.
PS The physical campus is also
excellent and not cramped.
