My children attended this school and had an amazing experience. The code of honor was a big principle that the staff focused on, and all students were set to a high standard.

We couldn't be happier with our daughter's experience at Great Falls School. The teachers and staff are amazing, the building itself is a beautiful and welcoming environment for learning, and our now-5th-grader has flourished in her years at this school.

Fantastic. So much more welcoming and organized than other schools in the district. I wish all schools were more well rounded like this.

If you're looking for a great school district without the pricey cost of living, Gorham Public schools is a wonderful district for your kids. Great Falls was completed in 2011 and was in session for the 11/12 school year. My kids started 2nd and 4th grade here after attending other Gorham schools. Great Falls offers children quality learning experiences with many modern learning tools and It was built to be energy efficient. My kids LOVE going here and as a parent I feel secure knowing my children are safe. The teachers and staff are absolutely phenomenal. Students absolutely come first at this school. One of the safety features of the school is the locking of the doors during the school day. You have to check in at the office to be admitted to the building and many doors don't have handles so once you leave the school you are forced to go back to the front of the building. The only thing I would change is that the staff in the office would ID you before unlocking the door to let you in. But I really have no complaints at all...the teachers are amazing, the staff is wonderful and the school itself is beautiful. Tie in the safety and energy efficiency...it's the complete package.
