R.O. Nelson Elementary School Reviews

 
My son attends Nelson and I think it is a great school. The staff are very helpful and they are very caring. I am in the Navy so I have experienced the best and worst of the schools. This is a great one...

Nelson is a great school. Their principal is the most involved of any I've seen. The teachers are wonderful and involved enough to make a great balance between home and school. My daughter has been there since Kindergarten and she has had a great experience.

This school is phenominal. It works to keep the children excited about learning, to help the children become better citizens, and all around individuals. They are better prepared for their next steps in life when they attend this school. As a military family, it's nice to find a school where my child feels at ease.

This school has a fantastic curriculum for the Talented and Gifted program. Excellent and very involved principal, teachers, and staff that make learning fun and productive. A wonderful learning environment.

My daughter is in her second year at R.O. Nelson (4th grade, TAG program.) I am absolutely thrilled with this school. The teachers make the time to give each of their students the attention they need. The curriculum is stellar. If the childen are having trouble, the teachers set aside their time to help. The counselors are wonderful. Beings we are from a military family there have been times when they have been needed, (when her father has to be gone.) The activities are family based and there is a great school/parent involvement ratio. They are always willing to answer any questions. I am really glad my daughter was picked up for the TAG program at R.O. Nelson. I would recommend this school to anyone with children in grades K-5

I beleive that this is a good school they are very community active ....however i think that the teachers are not as involved as they should be my son has been there for two years now and i have found the teachers both years to be very minimally involved one on one with the students and they are small class sizes my son has like 15 students in his class. sometimes at this age they need a little one on one that is second grade.
