Wells Elementary School is truly one of the best in the entire state of Maine. The newer construction building boasts offerings that most schools thrive to have. Two stories, expansive gym, cafeteria and library areas offer ample amount of space for learning, presenting and educating young minds. The staff is a mix of "forever" teachers and the younger generation. It is a fun environment to be a part of, for sure. The playground is situated just to the side of the school and has hand painted art, a US map mural as well as dedicated bench the children can sit and relax under the trees. As for safety, this school rates higher than most. A full-time SRO patrols the school grounds as well as cameras throughout every inch of the building. Teachers and staff are well equipped with radios and electronic communications to be in constant contact with the SRO, principal and office at all times.Each classroom has their own "vibe" and each teacher truly expresses that with the expansive and limitless decorations, creative work spaces and seating options. You will not walk in to a similar looking classroom or room in WES. The administration at WES is well above average. A rockstar principal whom is seen outside during morning and afternoon drop off/pick up, a vice principal who is active with every day learning and a front office staff who can rattle off your children's name, DOB and address at the drop of a hat. Wells Elementary School has top of the line laptops for each and every child. The children are exposed to technology right from the start.The SpecialEd program, also known as BRIDGES is top of the line. The teachers and special educators go above and beyond to tailor each students day to meet their own needs. This goes without saying that the guidance, as well as IEP team is flawless. If you're looking for a district who cares about your child, will push them to be their own and celebrate their accomplishments whether big or small - Wells Elementary is for you.

Wells High School is best-in-class. All of the administration is top-notch, very intelligent and caring for their students. They set-up an environment that fully prepares students for the future, as well as, creating focus on integrity and character development. My daughter was fortunate enough to have spent 3-years at WHS, graduated and is continuing with her education. She always had support and guidance from numerous teachers and staff - what a wonderful experience she had. No better school - in my mind. *Thanks to all, what an extraordinary group of people.*
