School Reviews
2   1/19/2016
I am actually a great aunt to an 8 year old girl who just moved to Niota from MD and attends Niota Elementary School. She is behind and in special education and has only been at the school less than 2 months. She has no friends and is now being bullied. She is having a difficult time adjusting. Her mother said nothing is being done by the school. The school has a bad reputation for bullying and low academic achievement. We are encouraging her mother to further meet with school officials for a resolution.
