[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At this point, school rankings have become a marketing scheme run by the real estate industry. This nonsense causes naive buyers to pay absurd prices for incremental differences in schools within a district. All of this means bigger paychecks for the real estate agents and their cronies.[/quote]

Oh, yippy. Another uninformed commenter. To start, home prices hinge of numerous factors extending well beyond school quality. Not that I would expect you to do the research, but if you had, you’d know that many local neighborhoods are expensive AND in near-failing districts.

I’m guessing you’re also unaware that Realtors can’t even discuss whether a neighborhood is safe/unsafe, let alone comment on the quality of the schools.

Realtors being the mastermind behind school ratings? Good one. 👎

DP.  Greatschools is king.  Not sure why so many refuse to admit it.  [/quote]

Other than being a website parents use to gauge the education quality of a school, are you saying realtors had something to do with creating the website? Or are you claiming they influence ratings? I'm highly confused. Mainly seems like you don't like realtors.

Most parents (living in homes and apartments) are usually interested giving their kids a quality education. [/quote]
