Know The School District!

In the book, "A Parent's Handbook: How to Get the Best Education Possible for Your Child K-6" Grades, it states that if you are relocating and and have not purchased or rented a property, a critical consideration is LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION. Especially as it pertains to your child's education and resale value. Below are some questions you need answered about a school system before committing to a property:

1. Academics offered

2. Graduation rate
3. Drop out rate
4. Suspension rate and types of violations
5. Number of students in the average classroom
6. Extra-curricular activities offered (Examples: athletic, clubs, academic teams)
7. Is there after school care?
8. Is there good parent involvement in the schools? (Examples: PTA membership, tutoring, book fairs)
9. Number of scholarships awarded to seniors
