[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I question the old go-to “great schools.” Be careful with that one.[/quote] People hate the scores because of the underlying truth. When we bought our first home years ago, we sought out an affordable enclave in a very highly rated elementary school district and it worked well. [/quote] Hardly, they only an average which reflects an area's overall SES. This doesn't predict how your child will do at a given school. A better predictor is the level of parental education. Most schools, for example, offer AP English. One has six sections, and another has 3, but you can get a five on the AP English exam at either school. [/quote]
