Thornton Academy Middle School Program In September 2006 Thornton Academy will expand its educational opportunities from grades 9 through 12 to include grades 6, 7 and 8. Located on Thornton's historic and beautiful 80-acre campus, the newly renovated middle school facility will house all middle grade students from the town of Arundel as well as private students from other Maine towns. With an initial enrollment of under 200 students, Thornton's middle school will maintain a small-school atmosphere while having access to large-school facilities, including Thornton's Garland Auditorium, Hyde Library, Linnell Gym and acres of playing fields. The middle school will also enjoy the benefit of Thornton's nearly 200 years of experience in providing a quality education and Thornton's leadership in the use of technology in the classroom. Thornton will begin an admissions process in May of 2006.
