6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating Averagethis school is not a very good school if there is anything i’ve learned it’s how to write this essay i bet half of these reviews are from teachers with alt accs not to mention most of them were created years ago when we had a different principal and different teachers. if ur gonna send your child to this school don’t go off of these reviews go off of people who go there or have gone there in there in the past year there has been many flaws in this school.Parent Review3y ago - Bowdoinham Community School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school has consistently shown that they are not able to adequately protect students during cases where a faculty member has proven themselves to cause students to be uncomfortable or in some cases displaying highly inappropriate behavior towards them including 2 current teachers and 1 previous teacher that only got stopped because police had to step in and investigate him personally. The administration has refused to intervene or inform students or parents of any possible danger or wrongdoing to the students. Overall this school is an absolute disaster that desperately needs an overhaul in how it handles itself and its facultyStudent Review1mo ago
