Summary

Edgewood High is a public high school serving grades 9-12 to 712 students in the West Covina Unified district, notable for its significant recent academic improvement within a predominantly low-income community.

The school has made a remarkable turnaround, jumping from a 2-star to a 4-star rating in a single year, now ranking higher than West Covina High in its own district. Edgewood excels in science, outperforming nearby schools like Sierra Vista High and Bassett Senior High, and maintains excellent graduation rates with very low chronic absenteeism. It shows particular strength in supporting vulnerable student groups, such as homeless and special education students, often outperforming higher-ranked schools in the area.

While mathematics remains an area for growth, Edgewood achieves these strong outcomes with mid-range per-student spending and a favorable student-teacher ratio. Its dramatic recovery suggests effective new strategies, making it a compelling example of a school successfully serving a high-needs population and a standout compared to local continuation schools like Coronado High (Continuation).
