The R.I.S.E. group had the opportunity to present at the district Amplify Impact Inspire Change conference at Middlesex County College on Wednesday March 26th. The students learned so much from their middle & high school peers about how everyone has the ability to lead and inspire change in our community.

Because the stories within our schools deserve to be seen and shared. We’re proud to launch the ETPS Spotlight . . . a new feature highlighting the students, staff, and community members who help shape Edison Township Public Schools. We begin by featuring three outstanding seniors from Edison High School’s STEM Academy: Archanga, Mithil, and Vendant. Visit our homepage to learn more about what makes them shine!
