It is an excellent school for students to attend.

My both boys studied in HHMS and love it. Principal is awesome and always there to address concerns if any. Overall Edison curriculum is aggressive. Board of Edison is same and curriculum is same whether in South Edison or North Edison.

I can’t say enough great things about James Monroe Elementary! From the moment you walk through the doors, it’s clear this is a school that prioritizes student growth, community, and kindness. The teachers are not only highly qualified but also deeply invested in the success and well-being of every child. They create a nurturing environment where students feel safe, supported, and excited to learn.The administration is approachable, responsive, and constantly working to improve both academic and extracurricular programs. Communication with parents is outstanding—regular updates, events, and parent-teacher interactions make it feel like a true partnership. The curriculum strikes a great balance between academic rigor and creativity, and the school does a fantastic job integrating technology, arts, and social-emotional learning.My child has grown tremendously—not just academically, but in confidence and character—thanks to the incredible staff and supportive environment at James Monroe Elementary. It’s more than just a school; it’s a community that truly cares. I’m so grateful to be part of it and would highly recommend it to any parent looking for an exceptional place for their child to learn and thrive.

My son is 3 years who just started this school. I must say the staff of bus service and school teacher is excellent. He has speech delay issue but i can see him already talking when he comes home from school. I must recommand this school to anyone with speech delay.
