Educational FocusMission Statement
With the belief that every child has the right to learn and to develop to
his/her own potential, the Edgewater School District is
committed to providing students with programs of
academic excellence, emotional/social development, good
citizenship, and life-long skills (determination and curiosity, for example) as they master the new Common Core State Standards.
State Changes MaintainedThe Governor imposed a 2% cap on
property tax increases which has been maintained.
• School boards can use the health benefits waiver and the enrollment waiver to exceed cap, but still remain within the Governor’s guidelines.
• The Governor allowed school boards to move the election/budget votes from April to November if budgets stay within the cap after appropriate waivers are applied. Since our budget is within the cap guidelines, voting for the budget is eliminated.
•In November we will hold a vote for ONE open BOE seat.
Goal of the Edgewater Board of Education
EBOE wishes to maintain the solid educational programs and
continue to advance
the integrity of the educational program particularly in the area of STEM (Science, Technology,
Engineering and Math)
AND remain financially
responsible to the entire community.
