"I have two children at Edison. We have experienced both the community program and the magnet program. The academics don't seem to be a whole lot better in the magnet program, but the caliber of students and the amount of discipline improved a great deal. My children attended a phenomenal elementary school. Edison is the only experience I have with a larger school so I may not have a broad perspective, but I am more than a bit disappointed with Edison. Even in the magnet program, I feel the academics are sub-standard. We have had a very difficult time with grades being entered into Power Schools correctly. I have to keep a close eye on it because both of my boys have received zeros on tests/assignments that they turned in and got As on. When there is a discrepancy or problem, the teachers, as a general rule, are not very approachable. They tend to blow the students off and procrastinate. Obviously this does not go for every teacher, but a great majority of them seem to only be there to clock in and out and get a paycheck."

"I am a current student at Edison Middle School. I came from a smaller TPS Elementary School.I have been involved with clubs and athletics meeting many types of students from many different backgrounds.I love my school,the teachers,coaches and classmates are some of the best students in Tulsa.Thank You Edison for keeping the school to it;s high expectations and allowing the students the opportunity to excel beyond my imagination.I look forward to moving right into the High School experience like my older sister has done.Thank You Edison,this school is the best!"

"As a parent,I have seen the hard work from my child payoff when staying in the community program for a year and then being accepted into the AP magnet program after that.It took a lot of hard work and initiative but in the end my daughters hardwork paid off.It is easy to see the school as two different entities but the programs are based on the same curriculum.I have seen many of my childs friends transfer,move and then come back to Edison.Sometimes people are the problem and not the school.All in all our family had been extremely pleased with not only the grades but the lifeskills being taught in thei school system.We look forward to having our younger child go to Edison Middle School as well.Great job teachers and staff! We do love our school and it shows."

"This is a very good school and only getting better. I don't have experience with the community part of the school but our daughter has been served well by the magnet program. She feels safe there and has made many friends across the socio-econ. spectrum. The teachers and admin. are approachable and as responsive as can be expected in a large school environment. The school's located in a nice part of midtown tulsa."

"Edison is a fantastic middle school and continues to improve each year. There is a heterogeneity in the students that adds to the educational experience."
