Mill Falls Charter School is New Hampshire's first Public Montessori School. Launched in the fall of 2012, the school is open – tuition free – to New Hampshire students, grades K-5. Located in Manchester, Mill Falls brings together children of all backgrounds and learning styles in mixed-age classrooms that merge the Common Core Curriculum with the individualized and academically integrated Montessori approach. Students' emotional and social growth is cultivated along-side their academic achievement in an inclusive and diverse public school setting. As a charter school, Mill Falls currently receive less than half of the funding that traditional public schools receive. For that reason, we must raise outside funds to continue to fulfill our mission, and do so with the help of the Mill Falls Charter School Foundation.
