Welcome |
This is the web site
of the former Edwards Central School of Edwards,
New York. All students attending public school
in the town of Edwards between the Class of 1949
and the Class of 1986 were graduates of ECS.
This web site, however, includes classes that were
graduated from the old Edwards High School, dating
back to 1914.
It now also includes
individuals who attended ECS but did not
graduate from the school. This may include
people who were students here but the family
moved before they graduated or others who spent
school years in Edwards but then graduated from
the merged Edwards-Knox Central School.
PLEASE NOTE: If you
graduated from ECS, please click on the "Submit
Your Alumni Info" tab in the banner at the top
of this page to submit your information.
If you attended ECS but left/moved before
graduation -OR- if you attended ECS and then
graduated from Edwards-Knox please
do not use that form. Instead,
submit
an email to the webmaster. In it
include all pertinent information including your
name (include maiden name while in school if
applicable), current contact information
including address, email and/or phone, and
year(s) you attended ECS. Please also tell
us what year you graduated from E-K (if
applicable) OR where you moved to when you left
ECS. Include the name of the high school
you graduated from and when if you would like.
We may contact you for additional information if
needed.

Important
Announcement |
Hello Everyone,
At this time the steering committee for ECS
Alumni and friends is changing the name of the
group to the Edwards Central School Alumni and
Former Students Association. We believe that
"former students" reflects the importance of
including students who left ECS before
graduation for whatever reason but whom consider
memories with former classmates of ECS more
important to them and share personal information
on the appropriate class page section or attend
the banquet. The annual banquet will also become
the Edwards Central School Alumni and Former
Students Association Banquet with revised
announcement and reservation forms for the
September 2024 banquet- date to be announced
after this years banquet.
We also want to
acknowledge the final graduation at Edwards
Central School was in 1986. We have had requests
to be listed as alumni from ECS who were
affiliated with Edwards-Knox after the merger of
the two districts. At this time the webmaster
will include a choice of former student of ECS
or Edwards-Knox and either a graduation year or
last year attended when signing up to join a
class page on the Edwards Alumni and former
students section of this website.
Thank
you, Martha Poole Landon, '73
