School is now open in Prince William County and the rest of the country. You would think all drivers would realize and respect the purpose of school speed signs and school bus lights is to protect our children. My husband and I live very close to three schools in Lake Ridge. They are all within eyesight of each other on two intersecting streets. There are more school speed limit signs with fashing lights than you can imagine. It never fails that some drivers (not necessarily teens) think they are a call to speed. Read the sign - the school zone speed limit in … (30 comments)

Many times people who are not married or do not have school children place little or no value on the location or quality of schools in the area of a home they are considering.

If they paid no attention to school issues at the time of the purchase of a property their lack of concern may "come home to roost" when they are ready to sell the property and move on with their lives Prince William County schools are … (6 comments)

Additionally, special needs frequently enter the equation of what a child needs as an integral part of their … (1 comments)

Not all purchasers are concerned about school quality, but they should be!!!! The fact that you do not have children or do not plan to have children is not a consideration. School quality is a major feature to many purchasers and will impact on one's ability to resell the home. It should be in the "mix" of items to be considered by ALL PURCHASERS. The question then becomes, "Where do I find the information?" There are many sources of information available, … (8 comments)
