Honest view on elementary schools

Family is moving to NC and we’re excited. One of us will work in Chapel Hill (and has strong preferences for Carrboro living, but we're realistic) and the other near Cary. We have a kid going into kindergarten. We always heard that the quality of CHCCS schools was outstanding but when comparing Carrboro Elementary (for example) with schools in Cary and Apex, the math and reading proficiency are concerning. I'm sure we're missing more context, but also keep hearing about the enrollment cliff and young families not being able to afford housing in the CHCCS area being a concern. What are people's real thoughts about the quality of elementary schools in CHCCS and in comparison with areas like Cary, Apex, and others we may not be considering right now. Much appreciated. We plan to find a rental first year but would love genuine feedback on this as we look forward to saving for buying a house at some point.

rental to avoid in Cary NC

In my opinion…

It would be best to avoid renting from 984 Lemster Lane, Cary NC 27519. Owner lies, claims in the posts that the place is cleaned every 3 weeks and that does not happen every 3 weeks, its more like every 4-8 weeks.

Claims he wants respect but does not give it. Says he will do something or that does not happen here, but does the opposite.

 

If something breaks, he will try to fix it himself and says it’s fixed when it is not. Will pretend to fix things for a week before calling a professional.

 

Will have late guests till like almost midnight at times, have full on conversations without any consideration if others are trying to sleep.

 

Smoke detector on the first floor was never fixed, has wires hanging from the ceiling where the smoke detector used to be, and that has been over a year.

 

Will hold you to the letter of the lease but not vice versa. If you hold him to the lease, he will deny, deny, deny.

 

This individual does not keep their word.

Missed connection Woody’s in Cary Fri night 5/15

Saw you at Woodys watching the band. You (F) had long dark hair, very nice makeup, and were wearing a black sleeveless top. You were sitting near the front window at a large table with 6-7 people (mixed group, but it didn’t appear that you were with any of the guys). I was sitting two tables over directly in front of you with my daughter watching the band but I couldn’t stop watching you, you were so beautiful. I know there’s virtually no chance, but maybe someone knows who this was.
