Hampton School District SAU 90

What Hampton School District SAU 90 does

Hampton School District SAU 90 is a public school administrative unit and political subdivision of the State of New Hampshire that operates the K-8 public education system for the town of Hampton, NH. The district is governed by an elected five-member School Board and managed by Superintendent Lois Costa, with operating funding derived from local property taxes, New Hampshire state education funding, and federal education grants. It serves local resident families free of tuition through three schools organized by grade band: Centre School (preschool-grade 2), Adeline C. Marston School (grades 3-5), and Hampton Academy (grades 6-8), supported by a central SAU 90 administrative office at 6 Marston Way, Hampton, NH.

The district's service portfolio combines core academic instruction with a set of federally and state-mandated support services, including Special Education (with related services such as occupational therapy, physical therapy, and speech pathology), Title I academic support, ESOL for English language learners, school counseling and mental health resources, McKinney-Vento homeless student support, and a food services program that includes free and reduced lunch. Curriculum offerings extend to grade-level curriculum, library curriculum, music curriculum, physical education and world language standards, and an ISTE-aligned Technology Curriculum. The district also operates Channel 8, an educational PEG (Public, Education and Government) cable channel produced under a franchise agreement with the Town of Hampton and the local cable company provider, featuring Shark News and student showcase programming.

The district's underlying technology is a standard school-district stack: the Apptegy content management platform powers the district and per-school websites (sau90.org and three school subdomains), while ThrillShare provides parent and student information access via web and dedicated iOS and Android mobile apps. There is no proprietary platform, no public API, and no AI/ML capability disclosed. Community communications are distributed through the website, mobile apps, Facebook, YouTube, X (Twitter), and the Channel 8 cable channel — a top-of-funnel informational stack with no commercial GTM motion, since enrollment is by residency rather than by purchase decision.
