Nisley Elementary School

This is by far the worst Elementary school in the district. Had I known in advance how bad this school was, I NEVER would have enrolled my son here. My son has a diagnosis of ADHD/ODD. The staff did an extremely poor job dealing with him and his diagnosis. He spent almost the entire first half of the year in the office with noise cancelling head phones on, without ever notifying me. They also forgot to feed him lunch on more than one occasion. They took away all gym and recesses until I found out. They waited till the last minute to take away most field trips. He was singled out the entire year. Even when I knew my son was being honest about an incident, they still punished him. Most of the time I was not notified when he was disciplined. We all were told at the beginning of the school year that he had lost the privilege of going on the end of year camp trip due to his behavior. It took more than 3 years to convince the staff that he needed a 504 plan and they just kept shooting me down. This school and it's staff lost mine and my husbands respect in the second year of my son's attendance. If you have a child with special needs, I STRONGLY recommend you find a better school for your child. My son is also exceptionally smart, but because of his behavior, they refused to put him in any AP classes. Instead, they allowed him to become extremely bored, which only exasperated his behavior. They acted like they were listening to us parents, however, we felt like anything we said fell upon deaf ears. If I could grade this school, they would receive a BIG FAT F!
