North Salem is the best school in Dover. It's a fun place for kid with mostly kind teachers. My favorite pod is yellow pod for the fun and nice teachers. I really miss mr.o odonnel but mr. depew is cool too. I would recommend this school to anyone for its awesomeness!

this school has losey communication beween teacher and parent . they do not allow parents at volenteer for school functions untill a clearance form compleated, however they never issued one. The band teacher however is amazing. My daughter want from an A student to a D student and often cries after coming home saying she hates her school. I would not recomend this school.
