Edgemont Jr./Sr. High School

What Edgemont Jr./Sr. High School does

Edgemont Jr./Sr. High School is a public secondary school within the Edgemont Union Free School District, serving approximately 950 students in grades 7-12 at its 75-acre campus at 200 White Oak Lane in Scarsdale, New York. Founded in 1955, the school is funded through local property taxes, New York State aid, and federal sources, with no tuition charged to district residents. Operational infrastructure is built on standard educational technology platforms: a Finalsite-powered public website, Infinite Campus for student information and parent portal access, PaySchools Central for cafeteria account management, and Boxcast for live event streaming. The school employs 21 staff per the firmographic figure (with the broader directory listing 226 constituents), led by Principal Kyle Hosier and district Superintendent Dr. Kenneth R. Hamilton.

The academic offering spans standard departments (English, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, World Languages, Fine Arts, Performing Arts, Technology, Physical Education, Special Education) supplemented by differentiated programs including a three-year Science Research track that regularly qualifies students for Regeneron WESEF and ISEF, a K-12 STEAM curriculum with design thinking and robotics, the Phaedrus alternative education program, and competitive programs in Vocal Jazz (13 consecutive National Jazz Festival first-place wins), Robotics (ranked 7th in NY State), DECA (18 students qualified for international competition), and Latin (June U. Stillwell Outstanding NYS Latin Program Award). Strategic partnerships with Weill Cornell Medical College, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, and Katonah Museum of Art extend experiential learning beyond the campus.

Revenue is not commercially generated in the conventional sense; the entity is a government-funded public school. Ancillary cafeteria payments flow through PaySchools Central with credit card and ACH convenience fees. Recent strategic emphasis is on AI integration in instruction through the AI APPy Hour teacher professional development program, STEAM expansion via the third annual STEAM Fair, and selective international programming including a cultural exchange partnership with a Dominican Republic school. There is no equity ownership, no parent company in the commercial sense, and no fundraising history to analyze.
