  • Edison is a great school every kid gets attention by there teacher and the principal knows almost everyone's name .At some point every year diffrent activites take place in diffrent classrooms. For example we have school spirt,sports ,baking , games and many more for diffrent ages.
    Are lunches are always at in aceptable point are classroomes and bathrooms any kind of room in are school is sanitary .
    my point is this is a exelent school and so is eveyone in it.there is not one person that walks thro the front door in the morning without a smile on their face !
