The staff of Edendale Middle School, EMS, recognizes that early adolescence is a time of transition. No other age encompasses such a unique range of intellectual, physical, ethical, emotional and social development. To address the special needs of young adolescents, the staff of EMS strives to provide:

• ALL students with a challenging comprehensive education
• ALL students a safe environment that fosters a love for learning.
• ALL members of the EMS community with opportunities to work towards building a stronger sense of community with all members actively involved in the daily activities of the school.
