About the School
The Thomas Edison K-8 serves children in an environment that is nurturing and safe. Edison students learn to read, write, compute and think through a high expectations curriculum that includes academic and arts education. We are dedicated to Health and Wellness and have beautiful facilities for recreation, exercise, and contemplation on our school grounds.
School Performance
Student performance data displayed below is from Next Generation MCAS results. For more data on schools, please visit the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) website. For schools with multiple campuses, the data below represents all schools in that network, not just the single school, unless otherwise noted. If data is not shown, it is not available for that school (e.g. the school might not serve any tested grades, or be too small to publicly release its scores).
IMPORTANT NOTE: DESE did not issue school, district, or state accountability determinations for the 2019-2020 school year due to the cancellation of state assessments and school closures related to COVID-19. As a result, there is no student performance data available from the state for school year 2019-2020.
