R. Dan Nolan Middle School

I am a grandparent who visits regularly, often on Fridays when you can attend for lunch with a child. This school has a broad spectrum of students, with an experienced faculty. Thus far, my grandson seems to have benefitted from that faculty and the general atmosphere which seems in all respects to be caring, respectful and responsible. I have witnessed no bullying or other negative behavior during lunch time, children seem to interact freely and in a very friendly and accepting matter, and there is always someone watching over them. Teaching is an exhausting job, and I appreciate the effort involved. The support staff is also uniformly friendly and respectful to both adults and children. Overall, I would as a retired professional give this school good marks. I have seen nothing significant which would raise any red flags. I have no experience with special education or special needs, but the physical needs of students seem to be met.

The school is the best ever , and the teachers are very nice. Teacher Courtney is very compassionate

My daughter truly enjoys attending this school and looks forward to going every day with a smile. As she is in VPK, I deeply appreciate the staff’s attentiveness and the genuine care they show by personally escorting her to her classroom each morning. Her teacher is wonderful — caring, patient, and truly dedicated to the children’s development. As a parent, it gives me great peace of mind to know that my daughter is in such a loving and supportive environment. I am sincerely grateful for all they do.

Such a great school. My daughter loved it here, she was excited to go every day and she had no negative experiences. She made friends, learned so much, and it truly was a pleasure to have had her attend. We moved, but we will never forget her short time at this school. It definitely left a positive impact on her education! Also, her teacher was Mrs. Ison (2nd grade) and she was truly wonderful. Very communicative and supportive.
