GreatSchools Rating
Parent Rating Average
My child has been there for a few years and this will be her last year. Bullying is an everyday issue and when my child tries to talk to an adult it is often times swept under the rug. The principal is so worried about being everyone's friend and not making a student feel bad that there is no discipline in this school. My child has been assaulted by another student while they were reading a book and the only thing that happened was a meeting with the parents, my child is told that if she sees something to say something but when she does she is often told that is tattle tailing and to move along, very confusing as a student and a parent. I can't wait for my child to not be in this school any longer.

"The snow is a lot but the summer is worth it! Beautiful natural world and a great place to feel comfortable and safe. Access to town resources nearby are limited but Burlington is an hour drive away. A good place to make a peaceful home. Very accepting and open minded."
