Nichols is a great school. I have had experiences with many of the teachers in the school, and they all care about the students. One teacher called it her "ministry". There is a new PACSA board that is working to fulfill the needs of students and parents. The principal is community driven and often
Posted by a parent on 11/3/2014I would give this school 5 stars except for the Principle. She means well, but is very inexperienced. She wants to skirt around the issues or problems rather than just taking them head on and fixing them. The teaching staff is phenomenal. Don't let the DPS "brand" fool you. The teachers are seasonal
Posted by a parent on 10/31/2014My son currently goes to Nichols and I think it's a good school. He has now had two different principals and I found them both dedicated professionals. I can't speak for all the teachers there, but his have been great. I do agree that should have more after school programs, but for the most part I l
Posted by a parent on 1/17/2013For the school is small as far as a bigger gym, lunch and an area for performances. I went to a school that went from k-8 and it was just a little bigger. Some teachers are excellent and there are others that need to retire. The principal is doing the best she can do. The city needs to help all
Posted by a parent on 6/15/2011I think Nichols is an excellent school. My daughter is challenged by her teachers. The students who are struggling get extra assistance from various staff members. The principal is very organized and the schools runs like a well oiled machine.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI went to Blackwell when I was 3 or 4 until 8th grade. The school taught me many lessons. It taught me regular school stuff of course, but it also taught me the value of having peers, community, pride, morals, boundaries, and how to handle people in general. Unfortunately since it's not getting a the attention it needs and should have, the funding is very low. Much like a lot of other schools in the dps district. I met the founder of the school. She was one of the sweetes HUMANS I have met and what she built on the foundation of this school was even greater! I had a ball (as much as a kid would at school of course). I have been notified that it will be shutting down soon, but I beg people to put more time in doing their research and interest Into this school! As a 2021 middle school graduate from this school, school board and parents, PLEASE put more effort into the schools around you and selfishly more so this one as well. It has IMPECCABLE potential!Other Review11mo ago - Field Moses
