Nichols School

I have two children in Nichols School. we have just moved to Stratford from New York. I have seen improvenments in their all around academics improve by 10 fold. The entire faculty is absolutely Fantastic, and very understanding. They have made us feel like part of their family.

I have nothing but good things to say about Nichols school. I currently have 2 children at Nichols. The staff have been wonderful every year. The principal is phenomenal. You can tell her staff respect her and it shows in their work. The support staff have been wonderful to my family and Nichols has a very dedicated PTA. I wouldn't want to send my children any where else.

People may say whatever they want,but at the end of the day,who had the best improvement and scores in the district?In addition,Nichols has had excellent test scores not once,but twice in the last four years.This was during a time when it was completely underrated by all.My hat goes off to all the staff including the principal, who worked together to pull this off in spite of those whose agendas had nothing to do with what was good for kids.hurray for Nichols!

I am a parent of a former Nichols school student.. I am very disappointed in all the negativity i have read on this web site... I have only good things to say about the teachers, the admininstrator and the staff... they were always supportive,interested and friendly.. my son enjoyed his years here at Nichols.. Is now a student at a prestigious college ... making the Deans list repeatedly... A teachers job can be difficult when manners and respect are not reinforced at home.. work with them not against them!

I think Nichols School WAS given a bad rap do to it's Principal for the past 4 years. I do not have a child there anymore but wish I did because I see good thing happening for Nichols. Starting with a new Principal who wants to be involved and make the school feel like a family. And then there is the PTA at Nichols a GREAT group of people who are working hard to give your children what they need. My feelings are if you do not get involved in School and help in making the necessary changes you have NO right to complain about how it was done! Getting involved in your child's school is rewarding for both you and your child. Take the time to go to a PTA meeting and get involved. Give Nichols a chance!
