As agents we get asked all of the time about the quality of local schools. Due to license laws we are prohibited from talking about schools, crime & safety. The Dept. of State wants the buyer to formulate their own opinion when it comes to decisions such as schools and neighborhood selection. We can however be the source of the source. Below are a few resources to help you navigate through the windy path we call New York City & Westchester County public and private schools.
Look carefully at the data you find and choose what you think will benefit your child the most. Some get caught up in the rankings but don't fully understand the criteria used to formulate those rankings. I always tell my clients to visit the school they have interest in unannounced. This way you will see the real deal and how you are treated without them being able to prepare for you.
