Edgewater High School

The Edgewater High attendance zone covers the College Park neighborhood and adjacent areas of north-central Orlando — generally bounded by the Lake Ivanhoe corridor to the east, the Lake Fairview / Lake Silver area to the north and west, and I-4 to the south. Killarney, Lake Silver, Princeton, and Rosemont are among the elementary schools that feed through College Park Middle and into Edgewater. For a specific address, use OCPS's Find My School tool at ocps.net — zoning is address-specific and can shift with annual rezoning.

Both the Center for Future Educators and the Engineering, Science and Technology magnets accept applications through the OCPS School Choice portal each fall. A 2.5 GPA is recommended for CFE; EST applicants should have a strong math and science record. Neither program provides district bus transport — plan for your own commute. Magnet acceptance overrides zoning, so out-of-zone families can apply. Check ocps.net for current deadlines; the window typically opens October–January for the following school year.

College Park is one of Orlando's most in-demand in-town neighborhoods. Median closed prices in 2025 were in the K–K range, with homes on larger lots or with lake access pushing well above K. The area trades fast — average days on market ran about 60 days in late 2025. Inventory is limited because College Park's street grid was mostly built out by the 1960s; turnover, not new construction, drives the market here.

The campus has OCPS's standard security posture — School Resource Officer, controlled entry, ID badging. College Park as a neighborhood sits inside the city of Orlando limits and has the variability that comes with urban proximity; it's one of the city's more desirable in-town areas. GreatSchools flagged below-average attendance (48% of students present nearly every day vs. a 69% state average), which is worth asking the school about if it's a factor for your family.

Both are OCPS high schools in central Orlando, but they serve different geographic and demographic zones. Edgewater draws from College Park and the Ivanhoe corridor — a walkable, established in-town neighborhood with strong housing demand. Jones High serves a different zone to the south and west. Edgewater holds a higher GreatSchools rating (6/10 vs. 4/10 for Jones) and carries two magnet programs. For buyers the relevant question is always which specific address falls in which zone — the OCPS Find My School tool is the definitive answer.
