This School’s Reviews
Niche Reviews
2/21/2024
I have had a great experience at Nesbitt. I earned over 40 college credit hours through dual enrollment at AB Tech. The rigor and structure of classes have adequately prepared me for college learning. I can access my teachers and professors when needed. I have been supported in all my academic endeavors and our classrooms are well-resourced for learning.
9/25/2023
The academics are amazing and the teachers truly want you to exceed but there is a lot of pressure to achieve the most and sometimes it becomes extremely stressful and there are many high expectations.
5/23/2023
there's a good amount of school spirit and it feels like a nice little community. there are some different classes offered and the school feels unique.

4/25/2017
My child is in their freshman year at NDA. We have been impressed with the high quality of instruction and the administration at this school.
10/25/2016
I feel like I'm a member of a family, not just a number on a spreadsheet. I could go on and on about all of the reasons I love this school, but there is probably a word limit.
