 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 The Alden
Management started off not great, but they brought a new manager (Michael) who has done a spectacular job since he was brought in. The building itself is very nice, extremely modern and new appliances, and very well designed layout. Overall I have had a great living experience, and look forward to being a long term tenant.
