School Information
The communities within Mountain Community Homes fall into one of two school districts:
Carthage Central School district (serving Families living in Rhicard Hills) or
Indian River school district (for those Families living in Monument Ridge, Crescent Woods, and Adirondack Creek). Within each school district there are several schools that serve elementary, middle and high school students. The school that children attend depends on the neighborhood in which they live, and the staff at the Welcome Home Center can provide specific information. In the meantime, the
Fort Drum School Liaison Office website is an excellent resource for information.
There are also a variety of local private schools, to include:
Carthage Augustinian Academy - www.caugustinian.org
Faith Fellowship - http://faithfellowshipschool.com/
Immaculate Heart Central - www.ihchs.org
John Bosco Pre-School Program - www.ihchs.org
St James Catholic School - http://stjamesk-6.org/
