Enrichment, Education & Erudition, Ahead of the Curve

GGreater Dover is a city dedicated to education and life itself. The Dover School District welcomes children to three excellent elementary schools and a state-of-the-art middle school. The district’s new, cutting-edge high school expands over 310,000 square feet, featuring a stand-alone

STEM building, an 850-seat theatre, a library with floor-to-ceiling windows, and a recently expanded technology and regional career center.

Extracurriculars shine at the high school’s two gyms, basketball courts, batting cages, sports fields, culinary kitchen, photography studio, and more.

There’s also a solar power array so efficient that it produces surplus electricity.

We are also home to Seacoast Charter School, a publicly funded elementary and middle school focused on experiencing education through the arts. The Strafford

Learning Center is responsive to the evolving needs of school districts, students, and families, supporting all learners in reaching their highest potential.

Dover’s private schools include New Hampshire’s #1 private K-12 school, the Portsmouth Christian

Academy at Dover. Joining it are several other excellent options, including Saint Mary Academy (PreK-8th Grade), Seacoast Charter School (K-8), St.

Thomas Aquinas High

School and Little Tree Education (Montessori preschool). Additional schools nearby include Somersworth’s private

Tri-City Christian

Academy (PreK-12th Grade) and the public

Oyster River High

School in Durham. Quality education, childcare, and support services are something we value highly in Dover. Monarch School of New England serves children 5-21 with significant physical, medical, developmental, behavioral, and emotional disabilities. Acton Academy Seacoast reinvents education with their self-paced learning environment, designed to foster responsibility, teamwork, and goal setting. And at Snapology of Dover, children have fun while they excel at robotics, coding, and other STEAM-fueled pursuits.

Of course, a life of learning is also a life of lifelong learning. Our erudite population is represented by 94% high school graduates, of whom 47% have a higher degree. Dover is just six miles from the University

of New Hampshire’s main

campus in neighboring Durham, ranked one of the safest college towns in the U.S. in 2017 by safewise.com. We’re on the UNH Wildcat Transit route, making for a convenient commute for both students and university employees. Our knowledge-hungry population also heads to Great

Bay Community College

(campuses in both Portsmouth and Rochester) for programs in everything from Accounting and Biotechnology to Massage Therapy and As New Englander John Sales & Digital Marketing – a

Dewey once said, literal A to Z Education is not (almost) of higher education and preparation for life; education is enrichment for Dover residents. Granite State life itself. College, which specifically focuses on adult students, boasts a wide range of online programs that offer convenience and flexibility.

Dover Adult Learning Center

of Strafford County also works with area adults to enhance their skills and improve their lives through basic education, job training, high school completion, and other classes, including ESL, GED, life skills and enrichment (computers, health & wellness, music, etc.), college prep, and workforce prep.
