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.

Rules not enforced

Description says manager on site, but should say manager rarely there. Volleyball court? Basketball court, nope just a hoop. Dog pick up bags are supposed to be provided, but they never are. Non residents park in resident parking and it is allowed, so residents have to park elsewhere. Noise rules are not enforced. Working on vehicles, in the open, not allowed, but several people do. One person has an auto repair business in the driveway. Drug activity, including sales, is allowed to continue. Apartments are not sound proof at all.
