Mitchell Neilson Primary School

I would say the same as the parent below, I came from an extremely weathly school and this was a shock but after having my child enrolled I can truly say don't judge by the outside, look at the teacher inside. Its quality, even in the location its at!!! Both my children are happy. The teachers are top quality! That is MNP not the other building! I cant say yet.

My son is in Kindergarten at MNP and while I had some reservations initially, he absolutely loves it. My child is quiet and shy and we've had no bullying problems. They have a very strict no bullying policy and on top of that, the kids are all great. This isn't the school that all the wealthy families have their kids in, but I am convinced that MNP is near the top for character.

My son loves MNP and so do I. Mrs. Parks is a wonderful principal and a truly vibrant person. The teachers are warm and concerned and compassionate towards the kids. My son is in kindergarten and I wouldn't have him anywhere else! The school really inspires self esteem within the children.

We have 2 children who attend Mitchell Neilson Primary. This is by far the best school any of our children have attended. The staff is wonderful and puts alot of thought and time into the children. I am amazed at all the things they do for the children. This is not just a school, in my opinion! It is also a place that teaches more than just academics. They teach important values, from the character building to the community involvement. I am very happy with this school and what my children are learning there.

I have a child who is supposed to be receiving special education services in this school. Yet at every chance possible, they refuse services, lie about what services are available and refuse additional testing that they are required to do by law. I have heard from many different parents as well as pediatricians who are familiar with this school district that this is a regular practice for them. No child that needs services should be denied them, yet this school as well as the district seem to do this on a regular basis.
