[edit] High School

After the note about the fosters survey on High Schools was removed, the "high school is the real point of pride for the town" stopped making sense. Somebody should remove it.

[edit] Also a Catholic high school

Hi. I am very new to editing, so please let me know if I am mistaken or doing anything wrong. I grew up in Dover and there is also a Catholic high school, so I thought it would be appropriate to add a sentence to the Education section. Something along the lines of "There is also a Catholic high school in Dover, St Thomas Aquinas, founded in 1960." Is this okay? ShayDC 22:10, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Hi, Shay! We were all new at least once, so no problem :)
I might suggest rewording that a little - perhaps "High school students also attend [[St. Thomas Aquinas High School (Dover)|]], founded in 1960, which is a [[Roman Catholic Church|Catholic]] high school.". Just a suggestion... Happy editing! -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 22:49, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] External Links

The Cocheco Mills link is not vital, however the Cocheco Mills are a vital piece of Dover's history. I haven't dived into the Mills history yet - it covers the textile industry that was in Dover, and the owner had Abraham Lincoln over at his house which is now called the Lincoln House. The Woodman Institute Museum is linked in the article now, which is good. Also not mentioned is Tuttle's Red Barn - America's Oldest Family Farm located on Old Dover Road. There is some information here: Tuttles History however I'm currently reviewing a new Children's Book that was released by the Tuttle's on Saturday, September 22nd 2007 titled Tuttle's Red Barn The Story of America's Oldest Family Farm. The book is very informative, however it may take some time to pan out the historical facts as the book covers 375 years of the family. Someone in the community should be in touch with the Tuttle's to expand on this - perhaps in a separate article linked to Dover. Thanks SatyrTN. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pmcelhiney (talkcontribs) 23:49, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
