The Augustine F. Maloney Elementary School houses students from Blackstone in grades three, four and five. Our current enrollment is two hundred seventy-five (275) with an average class size of twenty-one students.

The academic program features heterogeneous classrooms and inclusion of special needs students. Student achievement and assessment are the primary priorities. Faculty members are committed to on-going staff development and the concept of standards and expectations.

At the Maloney School, the education of our children is a shared responsibility of families, school and community in an effort to support our students to become lifelong learners and contributing members of society. We believe that our children should have a sound base of experiences that are essential for later learning, an excitement and curiosity for learning, and a strong sense of self-esteem. In essence, we believe that families and educators must support each child's unique development, respect and celebrate individual differences, and promote each child's fundamental right to learn in a safe, educationally appropriate environment.

The Maloney School is one of five (5) schools in the Blackstone-Millville Regional School District. All are dedicated to providing a program of educational excellence.

 

Members of the Blackstone-Millville Regional District School Committee are elected at large from the two member communities. Each of the eight members, four from each community, serves a four-year term. Two members stand for election each April.

 

Our mission is to challenge students in a safe and stimulating environment where ideas are shared and change is embraced in a collaborative effort to improve teaching and learning. We nurture the values of academic achievement, good citizenship, and self-worth by providing a flexible, supportive, and responsive learning environment characterized by high expectations. We are committed to the academic, social/emotional, and physical well-being of all.

 

The Blackstone-Millville School District embodies an appreciation of life-long learning; excellence in individual and educational programs; and shared accountability among students, staff, parents and citizens of the community. Everyone works together in an environment founded upon trust, integrity, fairness, open-communication and the belief that all individuals can learn.
