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.

I have never seen a fully-renovated property like this for such a great price. New appliances, new bathrooms, new kitchens, new everything! The new management company keeps the common areas clean too. So happy I found such a wonderful place.
