Exceptional teachers - who really know how to instill love for math, science and reading in to the kids.

A lot of fun teachers but some are strict. Mostly in Main Street School,( mss


Posted September 24, 2010

Facilities are a bit dated and tired, but the facilities do not make the school. As a parent of three children who have finished this school I feel qualified to provide this review. The management staff (principal, ass't principal) are phenomenal. They work with the teachers, parents, and students in a way that keeps everything running brilliantly. The teachers are overall, very good. An attempt is made to place your child in a classroom that provides for their unique needs. I have found that the students of parents who are involved tend to be placed with the better teachers. There are private schools in the Exeter area that offer better education and spend far less time on nonsense, like No Child Left Behind. As public schools go, LSS is very good.
