Thomas A. Edison is a great school because it has great teachers. These teachers are unfortunately ready to quit though. Not because they don't love and aren't dedicated to the kids, they are. But the new pressures placed on them because of the new requirements and the constant badgering by reviews is forcing them out. What will replace the good teachers are people not dedicated, very young and immature and will only last two years at best. Anything that can be done to get the state off the backs of our good teachers would be of great help. I'm an IA with a masters in political philosophy. I was thinking about becoming a certified teacher but there is no way I will now. I know that what everyone wishes to hear is positive talk and I want Edison to alway be a great school. I hope Edison will keep being a great school but I just don't see AZ having any great schools in the next few years. We can change this.

I like the structured environment of Edison Elementary as well as the general setup of parking, student drop off, and monthly parent meetings with the staff for updates on school events throughout the year.

This school is great! Really involved teachers who are focused on kids and they have their hands full with discipline. This is a community school that really tries to meet the needs of the neighborhood.

These students are in trouble. Teachers fail to teach so as the students move along they get deeper in the hole. This is a community school tho it accepts out of district students to pad numbers. Hence the oversized classes. Not good when the majority are remedial. Bad school because of bad administrator and early educators especially. Check out the scores. Might as well re-enroll the middle schoolers back in third grade with a new teacher.
