EDISON ACADEMY

Edison Academy is a public high school that is part of the Brockton school district, located in Brockton, MA with about 196 students offering grade levels from 9th Grade to 12th Grade. With about 7 teachers, Edison Academy has a student/teacher ratio of about 28:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Edison Academy is a specialized alternative high school located in Brockton, Massachusetts, operating under the Brockton Public Schools district. The academy is designed to provide a supportive and flexible educational environment for students who may struggle in a traditional high school setting. By offering a smaller, more personalized atmosphere, the school focuses on re-engaging students, helping them overcome academic or behavioral hurdles, and guiding them toward meeting state graduation requirements.

The curriculum at Edison Academy emphasizes credit recovery and individualized learning plans, ensuring that each student receives the specific attention needed to succeed. Beyond academics, the school places a strong value on fostering positive relationships between students and staff, aiming to build a sense of community and accountability. By providing a pathway for students to earn their diplomas in a non-traditional environment, Edison Academy plays a vital role in the district’s mission to ensure all students have equitable access to educational attainment and post-secondary success.
