Edison Middle School has partnered with Paper to provide unlimited access to trained tutors so students can ask questions, 
Work through problems and grow their confidence—at no cost to families.

Paper is an online, on-demand tutoring service providing students unlimited, 24/7 academic support. Whether they’re stuck on homework, studying for a test, or need someone to read and make suggestions to their writing, experts will always be available online to assist students one-on-one in all subject areas and more than four languages. See Paper FAQs to learn more.

Paper tutors have been specially trained to provide expert academic support in a secure, chat-based platform. Committed to helping students learn, they’ll never give students answers but rather facilitate deeper learning by asking guiding questions and providing timely encouragement.

Paper tutors act as 24/7 teaching assistants, so teachers can allocate instructional time effectively, knowing their students always have an extra helping hand. Teachers can also review student sessions to identify learning gaps and adjust their instruction as needed.

Learn more about how Paper supports families and sign up for a caregiver webinar on this website.

Welcome to Thomas A. Edison School!

We are a Central Six Middle School in West Orange, New Jersey.

Every unit covered will immerse children in a real-life situation to help make what they are learning about applicable and allow them to see why they need to know about it.

If you are new to the area and would like a tour of our school, please contact Dr. Keri Orange-Jones, our school Vice Principal, to schedule a time.
