We have been sending many great students from Spain to the school in the past years and they always have a wonderful experience. Many stay for 2 or 3 years since they love the academic options, sports and all the stuff members at the school that make them feel at home!

For the past two years we have invited international students into our home for the 5 day Thanksgiving Holiday from school.  Our entire family felt that it would be very rewarding to share our American traditions with students and in turn learn more about the countries they are from.  It has been great fun cooking turkey and pie with students from Spain, Vietnam and China.  We even went out and cut down our tree to decorate for the upcoming Christmas Holiday. We have enjoyed the experience very much and plan to continue in future years. Thank you Thornton Academy for attracting great students from all over the world to Saco, Maine.

Serving as a Vacation Family to one of Thornton's residential students was an amazing experience for my family. We were afforded the opportunity to open our home to a wonderful young person, learn about his country, and hopefully share a bit of what makes our family and traditions special. Our time as a vacation family was a blessing.

I ended up dropping out in 2015, due to an insane amount of bullying from both students and teachers. French teacher and math teacher both openly made fun of me for having questions/not understanding. French teacher even took it as far as to grade my tests (nobody else’s) in front of the whole class and only point out what I did wrong, not what was done right. When this was brought to the schools attention, they honestly couldn’t care less. And when they were let known that I would be dropping out, they did not care AT ALL. I was just a number to them. This school doesn’t care about their students whatsoever and it really shows. I was a struggling student who needed help, and I was denied. I feel 1 star is way too generous.
