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 96 Fifth Ave
Alcove studio that is extremely spacious with more closet space than any NY apartment I have seen. There is a separate area by the bathroom for storage and "dressing table". Updated kitchen and bathroom. Building has few amenities but is fulltime doorman building with excellent super who fixes any issues within 24 hours.
This is the perfect location with great doormen. Close to the best shopping, bars and restaurants it is the perfect New York experience.
