"Some parts are great. Got many parks. Different food options. Pretty safe for the most part. I know there are some parts that are a little sketchy. But a lot of families live here and have been for most of their lives."

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe absolutely love Edison Elementary School! Edison's teachers and principal are caring, highly qualified, and inspire learning. My daughter loves school and talks happily about everything they did. She describes what she learned and how she was taught. I see the impact the teachers and support staff are making. Also, students have many fine arts opportunities including a district musical and orchestra.Parent Review3y ago10 Reviews - Hazel Young Academy
