Netzaberg Elementary School (NES) opened its doors for the very first time on 25 August 2008. It is nestled in the hills of the Oberpfalz region of eastern Bavaria. The epicenter of the 830 family unit housing area, the Netzaberg Village Center showcases two schools: Netzaberg Elementary and Netzaberg Middle School. It also offers a Child Development Center, School-age Services, Youth Services/Teen Center, a shoppette with a gas station, and a community chapel.
