Caring teachers and staff. Will go out of their way to help all children
Nelson is an extremely great school. The teachers are wonderful, and the environment is friendly and diverse. This is a great school for students to develop a grounded personality, as students are able to form long lasting friendships without most of the 'clique' problems most schools develop.
I think for the most part this is a great school. The teachers get involved with parents and students, its a calm environment for the children and makes you feel like a part of the community, I do think they need more activities for the children, and I think they need to stop asking for a referendum, there is enough money for the school if it's allocated properly. As long as they don't lose sight of the children , I definately would recommend this school.
This was a great school, both of my children went here. The enivornment of the school is wonderful and the principal is extremely nice. It's not a bad school to let your child go to.
I feel that that V.H. Nelson School is great but we need voters to say yes to the referendum because we have lost so much ( like band ) and now we have bigger class sizes.
i would just like to say nelson truly is 'the best in the universe' the teachers and principal are all wonderful, and do a wonderful job!
I don't feel that the kids are priority, money is!! If the other were true we would not have the teacher to parent ratio that we have.
