A Message from Mr. Beattie
Edison Local Schools is on a trajectory of success, and it is built on something real: the dedication of our staff, the support of our community, and the resilience of our students.
Our mission — to prepare every graduate to be enrolled, enlisted, or employed — is not a slogan. It is a commitment that shapes every decision we make, from the programs we offer to the way we manage your tax dollars. Whether a Wildcat chooses college, a career, or military service, we want them to leave Edison ready and confident.
The work happening in our classrooms every day reflects four strategic priorities: building a strong school culture, driving student success, engaging our community, and maintaining the operational effectiveness that our families and taxpayers deserve. You will see all four of these pillars in action across our three school buildings.
Edison Local is a district of 208 rural square miles, 11 communities, nearly 1,450 students, and 195 dedicated professionals. We are small enough to know our kids by name and ambitious enough to offer cutting-edge opportunities from drone certification, biomedical pathways, and College Credit Plus, to a nationally recognized Project Lead The Way STEM program.
We are grateful for the trust this community places in us. That trust drives us to be transparent, to communicate proactively, and to make decisions that protect the long-term health of this district. I look forward to connecting with you throughout the year.
Go Wildcats!
Bill Beattie
Superintendent, Edison Local School District
Every student who walks through our doors deserves to leave with a plan — and the confidence to follow it.
