      St. Edward High School has an excellent caring staff. I have been impressed by all my son's educators. Although he is not in sports, but music and the arts and I find those programs to be on the college level. The teachers go beyond the call of duty and really put their hearts in St. Edward High School. I give it an EXCELLENT rating.
