      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.

      Giving up (Dantrell Pearson)

      I’ve been as patient as possible. I was told that I was approved on several occasions. The day of my lease signing (02/11/2019), I was told I haven’t been approved yet. It’s very displeasing and misleading to go through this knowing you’ve worked so hard for this. I wouldn’t recommend this process for no one.
