Thanks Heather. Very useful info
That was super helpful, thank you so much!
Awesome! Glad it was helpful!
Great explanations!!! Thank you!
You’re welcome! 😎
I’m so glad I found you! I keep looking through Zillow listings and if the Great Schools rating is below 6 I skip it. But some of those neighborhoods look amazing and I’m wondering if the scores are accurate.
It’s important to drill down into the great schools ratings to see why they are rated low. Is it test scores? Is it equity? Is it student progress? If the low rating is based on something important to you, you may want to consider applying to another school. Feel free to email me to discuss further.
This is brilliant!
Glad you like!
Hello Heather, Thank You!
My pleasure!
The one thing I can never understand is, how come I can't get my kids into a magnet school?
I bet that is frustrating. Have you applied and not been chosen?
@@LiveInRaleighNC Yep, since the year before they started kindergarten and every year since then. We in an middle income town and high income neighborhood.
@@sharpmom1737 oh wow, that sucks! I’m sorry to hear that!
