Nelson Elementary School

out of all my experiences this is not the worst. it just they do a good job covering it up and people will not come forward or speak. only behind scenes

If you child is special needs you will be flabbergasted and amazed at the outpouring of compassion and support. Expectations are high (my IEP kid is ASD but on the lesser end of the spectrum).Gifted service coordinators are nothing short of wonderful and your gifted child will interact with gifted peers which will help build relationships for asynchronous developing kids.I also have two neurotypical and normal kids and their experiences have been great. Nelson has built a passion for reading in my kids that is contagious.Any concerns I've ever had have been dealt with swiftly by the teachers and school administrators. We are a family that could choose to send our kids anywhere not just via Florida Choice but also private. After interviewing and touring private and charter schools there is no better place than Nelson for any of our four children.

We had a very discouraging experience!! 1st grade teacher didn't respond to repeated attempts to discuss student. My impression was that she did not care.

All of our kids attended Nelson before middle school & high school...I can't say enough about this wonderful school! Teachers go above & beyond expectations, administration is really well connected to students & families, & PTA is very active
