As one of two middle schools in the Edina Public School District, South View promotes academic excellence and award-winning school programming.

Other extracurricular activities promote leadership, skill building and fun-filled memories.
This highly rated middle school is also home to a dedicated engineering and computer science department. Students can take courses in robotics, engineering, coding, electronics and other related areas. The department offers these courses as part of the national Project Lead the Way program.

south view is very good. they have good teachers and amazing learning facilities. All the students love it here. They need to improve a little bit on the food but overall it's not plastic. The students love all the fun activities that South view offers. The remodel made South view a lot better and the kids love going to the flex space.
