Martin B. Anderson School No. 1 is a school community with a knowledgeable, caring staff that is committed to increasing student achievement, providing a healthy school environment, and creating lifelong learners.

We use best teaching practices to support the achievement of all students. We are proud of our new mobile computer lab and our Animal Assisted Literacy Reading Program (“dog therapy”).
