Acadia Academy School

The staff and environment are welcoming and encouraging. As retired educators we found this school to go well beyond expectations. Our granddaughter has had an outstanding introduction to learning and respect for everyone. The staff is exceptional and creative.

Out of the auburn area schools walton is great!! My daughter has been to three schools in l/a and i give this school two thumbs up. We have no issues with bullying like other local schools. They work so hard to still get children on field trips. And the teachers are great.

it a good school ,they listen to parents idea for there child.....................they teach real good

My two sons go to montello its a great school everyone is so nice and helpful

With a new principal there have been a lot of new teachers as well. There are some of the older staff and teachers which is good to see and make the changing for the students easier to adjust with. Just alone this early in the year they have come together and have brought the fighting that went on last year in the mornings to not at all. Its something when u have morning fighting at a elementary school than the bigger schools . This year there isnt any which makes the school safer, happier and an all around better place for kids and adults wanting or having to go here. The school nurse is one of a kind. She is always trying to encourage more parent involvement and is and has been motivated to improve whatever she can at the school . She is very dedicated to the students and the future of this school in many ways. There are many teachers that work here that do many things to bring this school to be the best and even when its not they dont stop trying . My kids use to go to small schools and now they go down here. To be able to notice the small details and see just how these teachers go about everyday to make a difference in a child life makes me a proud parent knowing my kid goes to Lonegley elementary and I do see Longely be one of the best schools in the future. Any school can be be #1 if they are given the chance.

So far I could not ask for a better school for my special needs children if you have a child with special needs and an IEP McMahon is the school for you I know the test scores are low but you have to take into account that they have more special needs children than all the other Lewiston elementary schools so by logic their scores will be lower cause unfortunately most children in McMahon don’t make it there before they are swept under the rug by other schools for a few years my oldest is one of those children I have been fighting for daytreatment since kindergarten he’s in the 4th grade and has just started at McMahon this year as for my youngest son he was luckily accepted at pine tree society early learning center and had an IEP thru CDS so he went straight to McMahon from pre K but he was in pre K for 2 years

Our child has been attending since K and is now entering 8th grade. All of his teachers have been great in communicating about him and have always appreciated their open door policy. We have been pleased with his progress academically, socially and spiritually and commend the relationships that the teachers develop with all the students. Sports have really grown in that there is soccer, basketball, cross country, and girls' softball, developmental baseball & soccer for the little ones. The graduates have gone off to varied universities from USM, UME, UNE, Gordon College, Oral Roberts Univ, Thomas College, Waynesburg Univ-PA., Castleton Colleg-VT, Cedarville Univ (Pharmacy Program), St. Joseph's, etc which shows me the graduates can compete and enter a varied scope of universities. As noted in a prior rating not all the teachers have degrees but the ones that don't each have over 17 years of teaching in the primary grades so I know their experience far outreaches a degree and are excellent teachers that are continually learning how to reach each child.,,,as are all the staff.
