How Can I find a Good School District? <br />Websites such as GreatSchools, Niche, and SchoolDigger are great resources for helping <br />buyers review standardized test scores, average classroom size, student completion <br />rates, and various other important factors. Buyers can also use these tools to narrow their <br />search based on magnet schools, alternative schools, charter schools, special education, <br />technical and vocational schools, and more. <br />After gathering some information, it is also advised to consult with your real estate agent <br />on recommended school districts. Real estate agents typically live in neighborhoods <br />where they help their clients buy and sell homes and their children may attend public <br />schools. If they don’t, they will still most likely have important insights into the school <br />district and the overall education system that you may not be able to find online. <br />The bottom line on school districts: <br />Every child has unique needs when it comes to securing a fulfilling education. Some may <br />thrive in a competitive environment whereas others may feel intimidated by their peers. In <br />addition to weighing test scores, classroom size, and student performance, it is also <br />important to consider the environment of the school to ensure it has a strong support <br />system in place that advocates for student wellness. <br />If you do not have children and do not plan on starting a family in the future, it is still <br />beneficial to consider homes in strong school districts, as your home’s value will most <br />likely continue to rise after purchasing it as a result of the school district. Among the many <br />benefits of working with a local real estate agent include consulting with them on districts, <br />administrations, after-school programs, and various other education-related questions. <br />They will also be able to advise whether or not you are overpaying for a home in a strong <br />school district and if you have an appropriate list price in mind when considering selling <br />your home. <br />Find your new home <br />Search real estate and homes for sale <br />Start Searching
