Niche Reviews
2/9/2026
Nichols is so much more than just a school. It is a community where you get to go everyday and learn with your friends. I think the outside class experiences are the biggest difference maker at Nichols. The people I have meet and connected with are still my best friends to this day.
2/6/2026
My daughter is thriving since joining the Nichols community. She has had the opportunity for more hands-on learning, experienced wonderful field trips, and tried new sports for the first time. The attention and care she receives from the faculty are top-notch. I don't even have to ask her how her day was at school, she is always willing to share amazing details about her day.
2/6/2026
I loved everything I think being harder on the students would really improve the school and not putting up with very socially conscious students.

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...
