This School’s Reviews
Niche Reviews
6/12/2025
I disliked it generally. The English department is very strong. Though many teachers have good credentials, I have found the stem education to be uninspired and dull. As an example of diversity, one of the about 50 boys in my grade was black. Arts declined as I studied there.
7/9/2024
Lacks diversity in a range of demographics, but especially in staff and administration. The culture of the school is definitely harmful for both students of color and general student population.
5/11/2024
The best part of Nichols was how it got you ready for a college level in environment, which class selection and multiple designated buildings to move from class to class. The worst part was the separation and low involvement we as students could have on the impact of the school. I wish, as a student body, we were able to have a lot more control.
GreatSchools Reviews
10/5/2014

The teachers care, the facilities are excellent, and ever since they brought in SAGE Dining the lunches have been generally top notch. T...

I have children in the middle school and the high school. This is our 5th year there and we have had a great experience. The middle school teachers in particular are so invested in our kids and their progress both academically and as individuals. If there is Nichols Kool Aid, my children have drank...
12/13/2011
I am very pleased to say my daughter is being challenged academically (finally) and her teachers and advisor know her personally. Everyone looks out for the kids' best interest, which means a lot to me. The teachers are passionate and spend time working with students outside of class. We are very pl...
