If you have children and you’re
considering buying a new home you have probably wondered about the difference in
schools from district to district. Not only for educational purpose but also
for the type of environment your kid will be around. It’s more important now,
than ever, to know your kids are being taught and looked after by someone you
can trust.
So before searching for that
perfect home you may want to do some research. Bay County has 18 elementary schools, 6 middle schools, 5 high
schools, 2 multi-grade schools, 3 special purpose schools, 1
adult/technical school, 6 charter schools and one virtual school. However, it can be much easier than
you think to research them. Visit www.SoldinFLA.com
and click on “About The Area”, then click “Schools”. Here you can get the FCAT
Scores for each school, Find out what score the school was given from A-F, Bus
routes, Scheduling, Lunch menu, Dress codes plus much more.
Don’t be afraid to visit local
schools if your schedule allows. Tour the facility, meet a few of the teachers
your kids will be with, and meet the principal. Ask questions and take notes. If
you get any negative vibes you’ll know to stay away from that school distract
or at least look into it a little more. If your younger ones intend to play
sports or any other type of after school activities find out what all the school
offers.
If time won’t permit to visit the schools,
pick up the phone or get on the computer. With social media what it is today it
can be fairly easy to get comments and feedback, in this case, on how well a school
is.
While finding the right house is
very important, so is the education of your children. So be sure you’re looking
for the right house in the right school zone.
