The book is very helpful for families that must relocate., April 14, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: San Francisco Bay Area School Ratings (Paperback)
Uprooting a young family is a traumatic experience no matter how many times one has done it before. We are relocating to the West coast from Maryland. Locating the right house in the right neighborhood translates to finding the "right" schools for your children. It is difficult to find comprehensive information about schools when you live far away. I daresay it is difficult for local residents as well. This is a personal decision that one doesn't always want to share with outsiders, even co-workers. Advice from real estate people or school administrators is not always objective. It is difficult to know what questions to ask and what facts to compare. The book gave me an effective roadmap for this important decision. It helped me overcome one difficult hurdle.

A VERY GOOD REFERNCE and RESOURCE!!!, January 2, 2003
This review is from: San Francisco Bay Area School Ratings (Paperback)
Since we are new to San Francisco, I find that this is a very good reference for me to pick a good public school in my neighborhood. This provide you with a summary of public school in your county and the rankings of each individual school by their test scores, school award winners. I find it very useful in helping me to locate a good public school for my son but I hope it can also provide information of private school so as to make to list complete.
