(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - 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.
