Being a 'beach town', Salisbury reaches out to many transient families who live in the hotels for the winter. The school is constantly challenged with students transitioning in/out during a school year.

I have found this school lacking in every way. While their are a few idealistic teachers that work hard at making the school better, the principal and vice principal are severely lacking in dealing with children and people in general. I take issue with their idea of recess is to march around the school once and return to their classroom!

I have 2 kids in the school. They work hard, like their teachers and are getting extra help that is needed in reading. They have homework nightly, so it isn't too easy. My wife and mother both help out in classrooms. My mom was a teacher for over 20 years elsewhere and respects the SES teachers.

Since the current principal took over in 2005, the quality of learning in this school has gone markedly downhill. Where this school used to have a caring and nurturing environment, it is now hard and unfeeling. The curriculum they currently use seems quite redundant and boring, which certainly does not foster love of learning. It is now all about teaching solely for the MCAS test and nothing more. I have a child who is both gifted and learning disabled, and this school is not meeting his needs in either category. A parent of a similar type student pulled their child from this school for the same reasons. I would not recommend this school to any but the most self-sufficient and motivated students.
