Poor leadership in this school. The school does not foster a great learning environment. Group assignments during a pandemic were terrible. If a student did not do their share of the work other students suffered. All the teacher and principal will say is to have patience. Don’t even think about sending emails that requires response. You will not receive an answer. Horrible school.

Great school. Great teachers. My daughter loves it. They advocate for the kids, are strengths & evidenced based and empowering. Communicate well.

Nottingham is the best high school in Hamilton! My four years there were some of the greatest. I had wonderful teachers who truly only cared about the best in their students. Administrators are willing to become friends (to an appropriate extent) with every student who walks into their building. The AP courses offered are diverse, but AP courses are not the only sign of students’s intelligence! I took AP courses and did not do rather well in most of them. The honors courses are flourishing in that school, with multiple options throughout the day for almost every class. The diversity of the school is another wonderful aspect. You won’t find that at all of the schools in this district! (cough cough S******t) One of my favorite things about Nottingham was that it pushed you to succeed in ways that made you HAPPY. Not every student goes to college, but most go to some sort of Vocational school OR join the service. In my graduating class, 97% of the students had plans post-graduation. The school also has multiple state-championship winning athletic teams, with many veteran coaches. BULLYING IS NOT TOLERATED. And one of the greatest things is that, even in instances where bullying would occur, there was ALWAYS a student there in defense of the victim. The morals taught at that school are extraordinary. No matter your interest, you can find a group for you and be HAPPY. Our robotics team, which would typically consist of many victims of bullying (according to most high school movies that perpetuate awful stereotypes in order to “teach”), consisted of many “jocks” and the captain during my senior year was also the captain of the lacrosse team. Football players would often quick change into their band uniforms to perform with our Marching Unit during the half-time of games. Athletes are held to a very strict standards of maintaining a certain GPA in order to perform. Students with learning disabilities are well supported. I learned so much about life during my time at Nottingham, and matured a lot. Another major plus - Nottingham’s district is not comprised of many “rich” families. Everyone works hard for what they achieve. There are no pay-offs, no bribes, no unethical means of persuasion, and many of these kids have dealt with difficult things during their lives. All of the students appreciate the opportunity to flourish and take serious advantage of it, making more out of themselves so they can do better than the generations before them.
