My son has been attending Nottingham Elementary for 2 years now. He has an IEP for reading and speech and the school has worked very diligently with him. Even now with the remote program, I am blown away at how organized they are and how thoughtful they are of my child and his screentime. Though not the most ideal setting learning from home, my son continues to improve and grow and it is all due to the amazing efforts from his teachers at Nottingham Elementary!

I went here 1st through 8th grade the kids here do nothing but bully and the teacher are horrible with the learning disability kids. The leadership skills are lacking as well.

I went here 1st thru 8th grade and I loved it. Most of my class was far ahead of the other towns when we got to Dover HS. It does have some issues, like any school, but overall was great while I was there. It was also interesting that what I was learning in 6th grade, my husband was learning at the same time in high school down in the South. He's nearly 7 years older than me! We definitely plan to move back to this area if we can once we're both out of the military.

Nottingham School is a welcoming place for children to learn. The focus is on the whole child, not just math facts and reading (although they are pretty great at teaching that too...). I send my child there and feel as though they are visiting an extended family.

I just love this school. The staff is attentive, and the atmosphere is welcoming to my children. Having children that range in academic abilities, I feel that each of them is getting what they need academically. More importantly, I feel as though I'm sending them to a safe and nurturing place that they can call "home".

What a lovely, caring community Nottingham is and the school is just as lovely and caring. They provide wonderful extras when they can. It takes a village to raise a child and you can't go wrong with this village since it is packed full of people that have a lot of integrity with both education and environmental matters. Nottingham has heart. I have seen them go above and beyond with my kids. Don't be surprised if a stranger offers words of wisdom or teaching your child about salamanders, etc. in this beautiful town.

We love the staff and small community. The school needs programs for accelerated students, as there are none, but other than that we are very happy.

Im sure these parents are not taking their comments lightly and have their own issues which you are not aware of. I really doubt that a group of parents would waste their time voicing their opinion just to bring the school's rating down. Is this not where there kids are enrolled also?? I have had two children attend this school and now my third child is there and i am looking at enrolling my child in a private school because of my older children's previous experiences in this school environment.

This school has gone down hill over the last 5 years, the bullying that is allowed to continue is unbelievable. The administration does nothing to try and stop this, because the bullying is done by the athletic, popular kids it is allowed to go on with no repercussions. Yet they advertise all the supposed efforts to stop this. The children are obviously not be educated or we would not still be failing the assessments and be designated as a School in Need yet again. The children were exposed to affairs between married teachers for several years, the principal was aware of this and has many emails that transpired on school time and computers yet nothing was done. So how is it that she made Principal of the Year? It is sad to know that this school is not looking out for the best interest of our children, just what will make them look good. Open your eyes Nottingham Parents!
