School Notes:
  • Edgewater High School is a high school located in Orlando, Florida. The athletic teams are known as the 'Fighting eagles'.
  • Its newspaper is The Eagle Eye, which is a member of the High School National Ad Network.
  • In 1950, the School Board of Orange County, Florida unveiled plans to build two new high schools in Orlando. These two schools were built from the same architectural plans (to save money,) and both were opened on the same day, September 2, 1952. The first was named William R. Boone High School and the second was named Edgewater High School. These two schools have been perennial athletic rivals ever since, and the Edgewater-Boone football game is an annual event in Orlando. Old-time residents of Orlando still jokingly refer to each other's alma mater as "Orlando's second-best high school." Boone was named for William R. Boone, a long-serving principal of the original Orlando High School (which is now Howard Middle School, on Robinson Street in downtown Orlando, near Lake Eola.) The campuses of Boone and EHS contained identical buildings, but their arrangement on each campus is different.
  • EHS' first principal was Mr. Orville R. Davis, a long-serving veteran of the Orange County Public Schools, who was once the principal of the original Memorial Junior High School (which is now Cherokee Middle School.) He was affectionately known as "O. R." to teachers and students alike.
