School Notes

  • School Mascot: Eagles
  • In choosing a school for your child, there are many issues to consider. The number one consideration is getting a quality education that will enable your child to pursue any direction he/she may choose. With ninety-nine percent of Edgewood graduates going on to higher education, we at EA know the importance of a solid foundation.
  • Other important issues to consider are safety, the student life opportunities offered such as sports, clubs and community involvement, the campus and its facilities, and the convenience of the location of the school.
  • Edgewood is about education, it is about competing in sports, but most of all it is about families working together to provide the best learning experience for their children.
