Principal's Message

Welcome To Edgewater High School!
"The Pride of College Park and Orlando"


Principal Heather Kreider
Dear Edgewater Family,


Eagle families, it's a great time to be an Edgewater Eagle! We have so many wonderful things happening. Magnet programs are thriving, academics are strong, performing arts students are simply crushing it at their assessments and performances, and athletics continue to represent Edgewater with the Eagle Pride that lasts through the generations.

Yesterday, our Orchestra students, under the direction of Ms. Camden Jordan, performed at their annual Musical Performance Assessment (MPA), which is the equivalent of an EOC exam for their course (nearby pictures). Our Concert Orchestra scored excellent in their performance and superior in sight reading, while our Chamber Orchestra scored straight superiors for both. What a great reminder of the excellence you can find in every building on this campus!



* SUPERIOR – The rating is comparable to the grade of “A”. This rating reflects the finest conceivable performance for the event and class of participants being evaluated – worthy of the distinction of being recognized as among the very best.

Our boys varsity basketball team will play on Thursday in the Class 6A State semi-final game in Lakeland. Please reach out to Coach Vandergrift or Mr. or Mrs. Lowe for details about the Pride Ride that will head to Lakeland Thursday to support the team. Anyone else who can make it there, we want strong representation! The game is at 3:00 pm, so Pride Ride students must be in good standing and have signed field trip permission slips and game ticket and bus purchases to participate. Spaces are limited!

Please see below for the modified schedule we will have on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday this week to accommodate the last round of benchmark assessments to prepare for end-of-course exams. Just as it is important to be at school on time, ready to learn every day, students must participate with full focus in these assessments. This is the final opportunity for teachers to gauge where additional interventions and enrichments are needed for student success.

Faculty, staff, and students are poised for a Shenanigan-filled month as we rolled out our March Madness plan on Friday. We have so many fun spirit activities planned that we want everyone to participate in! This is the long stretch as we begin to see the end of the school year in our sight. Stick with us and encourage your young people to maintain those great habits and pathways you have worked on all year with them.

There are 9 more instructional days in Quarter 3 and teachers will begin to post grades as early as this Friday. The following Friday, March 15, is a student holiday and marks the start of the spring break week. My charge to students: Be present. Be on time. Be engaged. Participate in your learning. Own your pathway. You've got this and we've got you!

Thank you for reading and have a week of excellence!
