This school shows the biggest example of nepotism I’ve ever seen in any organization. Some of the teachers (P.E.) are downright bullies to students who are not from their family or attend their church.

I am a student at Nantahala school i am entering 8th grade i have been there since pre-k it is the best school ever! The teachers have more one on one time with each and every student. It encourages student to enjoy life while learning! it is absoulutly the best school to send your child to.
