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.

The school benefits from the support of a very active Parent Teacher Association, a proactive school board and the citizens of this small, rural town. Perkins 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.

The 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 which guides the students’ educational journeys allowing them to reach their individual potentials.

The kindergarten program is a half-day program scheduled from 9:00 am to noon. There is 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.
