  • great new apartment

    June 7, 2023
    From the time I toured the property, I had a great experience. I interacted with Gene, Katie, Emily, Jacob, and Brandon. They were all very helpful and made my move easy. The location downtown is phenomenal and I have a great view from my apartment. Also, the building is state of the art.

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 scale of 1 (below average) and 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 needs as part of the school selection process.
