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.

Property Ratings at 8721 Imperial Hwy.
I just moved in, and I love my spacious and open apartment. The plank wood-like flooring throughout is fantastic, and the light, bright color palette on the walls adds to the overall appeal. The Amazon lockers is a great convenience for me, as I do a lot of online shopping. The management team has been nice and accommodating; I wanted a first-floor unit with a view, and they were able to provide that. The only downside is that they don't allow large dogs, but overall, it is a lovely place to call home.
