      School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

      Don’t live here

      I been living here for the past few months and it’s terrible. The property manager does a terrible job getting back in touch with residents. Someone was shot and killed across from my building. The heat is never on. My first day in my apartment things needed to be fixed. Please choose somewhere else to live. You also have to pay water, light, and gas with rent.
