Schools & Child Care
The schools in our region reflect the personalities of their home communities. Residents take great pride in maintaining education standards at levels that equal or surpass those of larger towns. Small-town schools are very much the showcase of their communities, and, therefore, benefit from the attentions of parents, graduates and those who simply wish for their town's students to shine and compete in any environment.
