Summary

Edison Middle School serves 635 students in grades 6–8 in the Wheaton area and is part of CUSD 200. Its 2025–26 results place it among the state’s top middle schools: SchoolDigger ranks it 60th of 1,126 Illinois schools, at the 95th percentile with 5 stars. The clearest finding for parents is that Edison leads nearby grade 6–8 schools in English Language Arts (ELA).

ELA is Edison’s strongest comparison: 91% of students were proficient in 2025–26, compared with 80% districtwide and 56% statewide; it was just ahead of Franklin Middle School among nearby grade 6–8 schools. Eighth-grade science is another standout: Edison’s 77% was 10 points above the district and 25 above the state, the highest result among the 10 nearby schools reporting eighth-grade scores. Math was strong relative to the state but less exceptional locally: 66% proficiency was 3 points above the district and 26 above the state, ranking third nearby behind Hadley Junior High School and Franklin. Eighth-grade math is the clearest soft spot: 59% was 13 points below Edison’s grade 7 result, though still 10 points above the district and 24 above the state.

Scores have risen over three years. From 2023–24 to 2025–26, ELA increased 14 points, from 77% to 91%, and math rose 16 points, from 50% to 66%. Edison’s state advantage in math widened by 5 points over that period, while its ELA advantage narrowed by 1 point overall. Contextually, chronic absenteeism was 10% in 2025–26, below the district’s 13% and state’s 24%. The school’s student-teacher ratio was 13.9 in 2024–25, compared with a nearby average of 12.2; 21% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year, versus a 31% average at nearby schools with the same measure. SchoolDigger’s statewide relative ranking for how well the school serves Asian students was at the 37th percentile, compared with the schoolwide 95th percentile; its ranking for Low Socio Economic Status Students was at the 76th percentile.
