Message from the Principal



James R Stenvenson

Dear Parents, Guardians, and Thomas Edison School Community,

It is with great pleasure that I welcome you and your family to another exciting year at TEHS High School. I consider myself very fortunate to work with many dedicated, innovative and caring staff members, parents and students. Each day is filled with new experiences, learning for all, and the ability to make someone’s day better.
TEHS High School’s curriculum and practices are consistently reviewed to ensure that we are following the most updated best practices, meeting all regulations, and addressing the future needs of our students. Our staff consistently follows current trends and in collaboration with administration, creates a plan of action to incorporate those trends into our classrooms. One of the largest areas of growth is the increased use of technology in our classrooms. Each student is assigned a Chromebook that they use throughout the school year. Students are working with Google Docs, Google Classroom, IXL, and many others. Some of our teachers have also included the Flipped Classroom method as part of their class instruction.
The students at TEHS High School are offered many opportunities to explore their interests and investigate new ideas. We offer many clubs, activities, sports and a large variety of musical ventures that our students can participate in. Many of our students are involved in a variety of extracurricular activities that allow them the opportunity to grow at their own pace in a safe, nurturing environment. Our list of clubs, activities and other extracurricular offerings are broadened each year in hopes to have something that interests each student.
