A Little About Us
Merriam School is one of the six elementary schools serving the Acton and Boxborough communities. Located in the main campus at 11 Charter Road, we share the Parker Damon building with the McCarthy-Towne Elementary School. Merriam offers a project-based curriculum. At Merriam, teachers loop with and teach the same group of students for two years (a teacher will teach Kindergarten one year, first grade the next, and then wrap back to Kindergarten). Merriam's philosophical foundations make Merriam a special school.
