Mt. Vernon Elementary School
 I am Pia Holmes, Principal of Mount Vernon Elementary School. Thank you for visiting our website! Mount Vernon Elementary School is a PreK-5 school with a student population of 135. Mt. Vernon is a scenic, lakes community just 20 minutes north of Maine’s capital, Augusta and 20 minutes from Farmington, ME in the foothills of Maine. It is one of four elementary schools that make up RSU 38. Read more about our programs in the Student Handbook.
Mount Vernon Elementary School is a warm, inviting school with an energetic and dedicated staff that is continuously working to improve programming for all our students. We guide our students to be responsible, confident and enthusiastic about school. Communications and community relationships are a priority. Every week we put out a School Newsletter to help keep parents and community members informed about school functions. Our guidance counselor, school nurse and other specialists contribute to this weekly newsletter. In addition, each classroom teacher publishes a weekly newsletter that is sent to all parents electronically or by hard copy.
All staff members are committed to maintaining a supportive environment that enables students to function with as much independence as possible. We provide a challenging and engaging curriculum in a respectful and caring environment. Our school community supports a diverse arts curriculum which is taught by talented staff members who produce numerous student performances that vary from ongoing displays in the Hallway Art Gallery to seasonal concerts, Student Recital and PTC Variety Show.
Our school facility is light and spacious with adequate room for all programming. We enjoy dedicated space for our library, music, art, and physical education programs. In addition we have a well equipped computer lab and kitchen facility. We are able to offer a variety of enrichment programming both during and after school. Each Tuesday morning Playgroup (0-4 yrs olds and parents) spends time in the gym with it's tile flooring and then transitions to the library for storyhour.
