A tremendous focus is also placed on infusing technology into our curriculum, so that our students are equipped with 21st century skills and experiences.
Nixon School is a place where students, families, community members, and staff work together to BE THE CHANGE. We are truly ONE community working towards the goal of helping each other to positively impact our own lives, as well as the lives of others. Thank you for being a part of this important work!
