(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Nellie's has been a spectacular school for my daughter. She started in day care and is currently in 1st grade. Many of my family members and friends are amazed at the amount of knowledge my daughter has acquired in her few years. She is currently at a 2nd grade comprehension level. The teachers are great, Grandma Nelly is WONDERFUL.
This little school is HIGHLY recommended to any one that wants their child to succeed in life and is open to diversity.

- Nellies is amazing! Both of my children are attending and my oldest has been there for 4 years (now in 1st grade). An absolutely wonderful, caring staff and an extremely well rounded education. My daughter's academics are way above her peers!
