How can you evaluate the quality of a school district? There are so many factors to consider — you must decide what’s important to you and your child. Is it curriculum or test scores or diversity of student body? Many sources of information are online, such as http://www.greatschools.org/, the Georgia Department of Education and the National Center for Education Statistics. Of course, you should visit the school, if possible.

As you search for North Atlanta Communities Provide Great Schools and begin researching school districts for your move, be warned: Fair Housing laws make it very difficult for real estate agents to answer your questions because we cannot be perceived as “steering” buyers toward or away from a particular neighborhood in a discriminatory matter. So it’s imperative that you do your own homework on school districts.
