According to the school’s mission, “Starting with the 2015-16 school year, we have united Edison Career and Technology High School in the City School District, poised to be a positive force in the Rochester and Finger Lakes regional economy.

Edison Tech students take rigorous academic and technical coursework along with work-based learning in four distinct career pathways. Our mission is to ensure that an Edison Tech graduate is exceptionally well prepared for jobs in high-demand, rewarding career fields.

Career Pathways are central to that mission. The four pathways are: Construction/Architecture and Design, Engineering and Manufacturing, Digital Media, and P-Tech. At the heart of these pathways is the theory of linked learning, where students have the opportunity not just to gain education in the classroom but also from hands-on training and on-the-job experiences.

The bedrock for our pathways approach to education is the idea of linked learning which ties academics, technical training, work-based learning, and support services to create a valuable and relevant education that will inform and excite students.”

Light refreshment will be served during the Expo that will be held on the school’s campus.

Edison is located at 655 Colfax Street, 585.324.9700
