Miami Edison Senior High School Expectation Declaration

Raising Our Standards

Dear Red Raiders,

As members of the Miami Edison Senior High School community, each one of you is an essential thread in the vibrant tapestry that makes our school unique. This year, we embrace the theme “Raising Our Standards,” a call to elevate ourselves and our community, not to the unreachable peaks of perfection, but to the attainable heights of our personal best.

Excellence, Not Perfection

We understand that the road to excellence is not defined by perfection. It’s about progress, learning from mistakes, and continuing to push forward even when challenges arise. We expect you to strive for excellence in your academics, behavior, and personal interactions. This means attending classes regularly, completing assignments on time, and treating everyone with respect and kindness.

Support and Growth

Remember, you are not alone on this journey. Our faculty and staff are here to guide and support you. We believe in you and your potential, even on the days you might doubt it yourself. We expect you to reach out for help when you need it, participate actively in your learning, and engage with the wealth of resources available to you.

Community and Responsibility

Being a part of Edison means more than attending a school; it means being an active participant in our community. We expect you to uphold the values we cherish, contribute positively to our school culture, and respect the diversity that each student brings to our campus. Every action you take, big or small, impacts those around you and shapes the environment we share.

Integrity and Accountability

Integrity will be your compass at Miami Edison. We expect honesty in your academic work and sincerity in your actions. Hold yourself accountable, not just because it’s a rule, but because it’s the right thing to do. In doing so, you lift not only yourself but also your peers, creating a community of trust and mutual respect.

Encouragement and Empowerment

As we raise our standards, let’s also lift each other. Celebrate the successes of your peers as you would your own. Encourage each other in moments of doubt and challenge each other to grow beyond comfort zones. At Edison, empowerment is not just a word; it’s our way of life.

Your Journey, Our Mission

We are excited to see the paths you will carve out this year. Remember, excellence is a journey, not a destination. We are here to guide you, but the steps you take are yours. Own them. Grow through them. And let them lead you to your dreams.

With high expectations and high hopes,

Miami Edison Senior High School Faculty and Staff
