Oyster River School District

The Oyster River School District is the reason we decided to call Durham, NH our home.  Our son Gavin graduated from Moharimet Elementary, and is now in the Oyster River Middel School, while Paidan has started first grade at Moharimet.  The sense of community that the schools have developed has become an important part of our families lives.  The teachers and administrators have been amazing to work with throughtout our childrens early education, and we are looking forward to the coming years.
