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.

Thank you very much for your feedback. We value our residents and community and take pride in providing a great place to live. Your positive comments mean a great deal to us because we truly strive to have loyal residents. Thanks again!
As I was moving in the new owners were completely redoing the apartments. My apartment has all new appliances and flooring and I think it looks amazing and for what I'm paying its probably the best deal in town. Other then the couple of spiders, the apartments getting really hot during the summer And them redoing everything was kinda a hassle I think it is a very nice and quiet place to live and close to everything.
