Nichols Elementary

Nichols Elementary at 4250 Old Grove Rd, Oceanside, CA earns it’s 4 of 10 educational rating. I have two young boys; one in 1^st and one in 4^th grade. The 4^th grade teacher is exemplary, exactly what I expect from a respectable school. But the first grade teacher Ms. Kennington is disappointing. Typically I side with the teacher against my kids but after a few of these incidents clearly leading back to Ms. Kennington, I discovered how detrimental this lady is to the education and safety of the children exposed to her (testament of numerous families who have students in her purview). I filed complaints with the Principal Mr. Moran and other teachers only to be informed at the end of the school year that she had «been made aware of the situation.» It is disheartening to know that regardless of how dangerous a teacher is to the health and education of students, there will be nothing done when it is brought to the attention of the proper authorities. This was a series of serious situations we wish we could have avoided. We are remediating our 1^st grader over the summer to hopefully prepare him for second and transferring both our students to another school elsewhere in the district.
