(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I am so pleased with the teachers & the academics that are taught at N.O. Nelson. The staff is personal & friendly everyone seems to love their job & the students. From the Custodians, bus drivers, cafeteria staff, security personnel & play ground monitors they know me & my children.
Thank you Mrs. Patton for your wonderful staff & your never ending love of children & educating them!
