The teachers and vice principal are bigger bullies then the students who attended, and they continuously get away with the harm they do. This alone rates it as a -10 review because school is supposed to be a safe place. Period.Changing schools in the middle of the year for a 6th grader is stressful....but for my child, it's a relief and she anxiously awaits the day, because of THIS SCHOOL AND ITS TEACHERS, MULTIPLE, NOT JUST ONE.Also, attempting to get any clarification or instruction past the bare minimum for academic work is like seeing pigs actually fly.

The River Valley Area is a wonderful supportive community with schools who supports all learners in a safe and welcoming environment.

Small town school with a handful of kids in each class room. The teacher are able to spend more time with each child. They see what areas the children s strengths or weaknesses are and can provide the children that are below average grade level, at or above grade level work in any area, math reading, science sports etc. the kind of work they can do. These kids do very well here. They also have great after school programs for all the kids to enjoy. They get a little bit exposure to many things. As well as many field trips. My grandchild has been doing above grade level work since moving here. This child was failing in the larger class room setting in MA. The teachers and the parent didn't know the talent for reading and math. Second grade the teacher saw that the child could slip into 3rd grade words, started reading 3rd grader books. We go to the library weekly. My grandchild s Math skills started to show up in grade 2. Then in grade 3 got the Algebra award, WOW! Reading at a four grade level. I see that the homework is done and push the reading. This bright child that would have fallen through the cracks if not for the move to this small town of Andover, Maine.
