William Allen School is a K-5 school of approximately 355 students nestled in the downtown area of Rochester, New Hampshire. We are one of eight elementary schools in the state's fourth largest city. Our teaching staff is as diverse as the students. The seventeen classroom teachers range from first year beginning teachers to
27-year veterans.

At William Allen School we strive to provide a safe, respectful, and encouraging environment in which children can grow and learn. Respecting that each child is an individual with particular strengths and weaknesses, it is our goal to assess the needs of each child, to maximize strengths, and to improve weaker areas.
