Buyers ALWAYS ask agents, "Is this house in a good School District?" Not only is it illegal to answer but, it is considered steering and only THEIR opinion. The truth is you need answers but, get them properly. Another question is, do they really know what you mean by your question? You are responsible for doing your own research at a reliable source. In the link below, you will be given the information to determine what is the proper School District for your learner by searching through the New York State Department of Education's website. It is the only place where you will receive unskewed information, no articles, no opinions, just facts. Is your student "gifted and talented"? Do they need a good Special Education Department because they have an IEP?
