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 Beacon
Worst Experience Ever. This complex is money hungry and takes advantage of college students. They charge for EVERYTHING, but do not consistently offer what they charge for. Example, You have to pay for reserved parking, but any one is allowed to park in your space without any consequence. They will make you find someone to sublet your unit despite the long waiting list they have. They will pair you with any roommate despite your request. ANYONE has access to the community. They allow pool parties where people were present with guns. There is no system in place to ensure resident’s safety
We scheduled a tour this past Friday and was immediately welcomed by the sweetest person, Kiwanda. She showed us around and answered every single question we had. She was very patient, extremely knowledgeable about the complex and the excitement she showed us made us excited to allow our upcoming college students to reside at The Beacon. The amenities are fabulous. There are areas for the residents to socialize with a big TV, pool table, etc along with a study room that has printers and computers for their use. The fact that the units come fully furnished is a huge plus along with the complex being gated adds extra security and having a 24/7 fitness center made our boys really happy. Kiwanda has kept in touch with us during the whole application process so that we were fully informed about what was going on. We look forward to our guys living at a complex where the staff is excited to have them living there!
