Serving Local Families
Edgewood Jr/Sr High School serves Merritt Island families with strong academics and a tight-knit island community atmosphere.
About Edgewood Jr/Sr High School
Edgewood Junior/Senior High School serves the heart of Merritt Island, a barrier island community nestled between the Indian River and Banana River with proximity to Kennedy Space Center and the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge. The Edgewood zone encompasses a range of Merritt Island neighborhoods from canal-front homes with boating access to inland subdivisions with community amenities. Merritt Island has a distinctive "island living" character - close-knit neighborhoods, waterway access, and a pace of life that balances suburban convenience with natural beauty. Homes in the Edgewood zone range from 1960s-era original island homes to 2000s-era planned communities. The older homes along canals and the Tropical Trail corridor offer exceptional waterfront living at prices below comparable waterfront on the beach side. These homes are increasingly being renovated by both long-time residents and newcomers who recognize the value. Kitchen and bathroom remodels, impact window upgrades, outdoor kitchen additions overlooking waterways, and screen enclosure improvements are the most common projects.
School Zone Living
Families who choose to live in the Edgewood Jr/Sr High School zone are making a long-term commitment to the area. This means investing in homes that serve well for years - kitchens that function as the center of family life, bathrooms that handle busy morning routines, and outdoor spaces for relaxation and entertaining. The strong school reputation supports property values, making home improvement investments in this zone particularly rewarding.

Common Questions
Kitchen renovations lead the way on Merritt Island, especially in homes built before 2000. Outdoor kitchen additions are extremely popular given the island lifestyle and the many homes with waterfront views. Screen enclosure upgrades and impact window replacements are also in high demand as homeowners invest in both comfort and hurricane protection for their island homes.
Yes. Canal-front homes face increased humidity, salt exposure from brackish water, and potential flood risk. ELSO Contracting specifies moisture-resistant materials for waterfront properties - porcelain over natural stone, marine-grade hardware, moisture-resistant cabinetry, and flood-resistant floor materials on the first floor. Proper ventilation in kitchens and bathrooms is especially important in waterfront homes.
Merritt Island offers strong renovation ROI, particularly for waterfront properties. Canal-front homes that are renovated to modern standards command significant premiums over un-renovated neighbors. The limited supply of island real estate (you cannot build new land on Merritt Island) ensures that well-maintained and updated properties hold their value well.
