Easton Schools
The Easton School Department is a municipal school district with an approximate enrollment of 270 students. An elementary school housing an early childhood program through grade six is located two hundred yards from a grade 7-12 junior/senior high school facility. The average class size in the elementary school is 15 with most classes at the junior/senior high at or less than 15. Class size and the resulting individual attention are but a few of the many strengths of the system.

Easton employs fifty staff members including teachers and support staff as well as a full-time superintendent and two principals. The early childhood program through grade two, students are in self-contained classrooms. Grades three through six use a team teaching approach while grades 7-12 are departmentalized.
Technology has been an important
facet of Easton Schools for many years. The 
financial
support and foresight of the school board and community has enabled the
schools to provide internet access in every classroom as well as computer
labs in both buildings. These labs are updated and expanded on a regular
basis. The system presently has 85 internet accessible computers for its
combined 320 students and staff. Professional development in technology
has been made available to all staff through workshops within and outside
the district. Recently, a graduate level technology course was taught on
campus.
Easton students have been successful academically and in a variety of school activities. Grade 11 students have consistently placed in the top 10% of all schools on the Maine Educational Assessments (MEAs). an average of 95% of all graduates have continued their education in each of the last seven years. Students have access to athletics, music, drama and clubs with participation virtually guaranteed.
