John D. Perkins, Sr. Elementary School

919 North Highway Route 10
603-446-3307

Perkins School is located on Route 10, north of the Marlow Grocery Store. This small school provides a wonderful opportunity for students to join a caring and supportive learning community with a variety of programs. Our school benefits from the support of a very active Parent Teacher Association, our proactive school board and the citizens of this small, rural town. Our school educates students in kindergarten through grade six. Upon graduation from Perkins School, students in grades seven through twelve attend the Keene Middle and Keene High Schools. Our teachers teach two grades, arranged in grades 1 and 2, 3 and 4, and 5 and 6. This two-year arrangement allows students and teachers to develop a rapport to guide students' educational journeys to reach their individual potentials. Our kindergarten program is a half-day program scheduled from 9:00 am to noon. We have a school lunch program for all students followed by a 20- minute recess. Students also have classes in Art, Music, French and Physical Education one day each week
