Maine School Administrative District 68
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Maine School Administrative District 68 consists of three public schools in Dover-Foxcroft, Maine and Monson, Maine. The district serves the towns of Dover-Foxcroft, Monson Sebec, Charleston, and smaller communities. Students are often bussed in from these outlying towns.
MSAD 68 sends its high school students to Foxcroft Academy which is also located in Dover-Foxcroft.

[edit] Facts
- MSAD 68 is the largest of four school districts in Piscataquis County
- Monson used to have its own high school until 1967. Monson middle school and high school students attend SeDoMoCha Middle School and Foxcroft Academy.
- Dover-Foxcroft has since become a hub for MSAD 68, as Monson is the only town outside Dover to have a school currently in the district.
Defunct Schools
- Mayo Street Elementary School was a "transition" elementary school. This school was set up for only 5th graders in Dover-Foxcroft. These students go to SeDoMoCha Middle School. The building now houses the offices of MSAD 68 and an adult education center.
- Charleston Elementary School was a school located in Charleston until it fell into desrepair, and the funds to build a new building were not adequate. The students now attend Morton Elementary School in Dover-Foxcroft and are bussed in.
- Monson Academy was a high school located in Monson. Although not technically a part of MSAD 68 during its lifetime (which spanned over 100 years), graduates of Foxcroft Academy from Monson are essentially both Monson Academy and Foxcroft Academy graduates - although no degree is given by Monson Academy.
