School Reviews

Our family chose the Messalonskee School District for its engaging teaching staff, world class music and theatre programs, competitive athletics, co-curricular offerings, supportive community, and college recruitment opportunities. They offer 4 curriculum levels: AP: Advanced Placement, DE: Dual Enrollment (Concurrent Enrollment), CP: College Prep (will be designated on transcript), CTE: Career & Technical Education. I couldn't ask for a better school district to send my children.

No child left behind means...everyone passes and 60% of the students are on honor roll. No one will be ready for college. No responsibility or accountability at this school,everyone is top of their class! Ridiculous...why try,,,grades are free!
