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 Melroy
The apartment is fairly new and clean, however the kitchen is extremely small which makes it difficult to do any cooking. The big plus of this place is that there is no problem with parking and its very conveniently located.
The apartment is a studio, good for one person. It is very convenient for its location which is in close proximity to the University I attend, as well as many restaurants, shopping and dining locations. It also happens to be very close to my job which I like. The apartment is a cute light yellow with white trim and has a small patio space where I can grow some plants.
