Rockwall Schools Are Solid!

In making a decision regarding where to make your next home purchase, it is of utmost important to look at the local school district. This is important for two reasons. The first is obvious - parents want the absolute best for their children when it comes to their education. The second is maintaining property values. If your home is located in a highly desired school district resale and days on the market are greatly enhanced, which is always important with today’s job market and not knowing when and if you will have to pull up roots and move to pursue a new job or career.It is well known through out the area that Rockwall has some of the best schools around. This helps to prove my second point. Rockwall is the third fastest growing county in the nation according to the 2005 - 2006 census and much of that is attributed to our exceptional schools. Other factors can be attributed to the growth such as quality of life in an upscale suburban area, proximity to Dallas and to Lake Ray Hubbard, but without quality schools many families would overlook this community.

One of the things that has helped make Rockwall schools what they are is the fiscal responsibility of the school district. In a recent article written in Texas School Business magazine, the path to financial freedom has been recounted. Rockwall ISD received an award for Distinguished Budget Presentation, an award bestowed on only 16 districts in Texas and 61 in the nation. This has allowed the district to include programs and tools necessary to providing a quality education. I am extremely proud to be a part of this community and wanted to share this not only with those who may be considering relocating to this area, but the existing homeowners need to know what we have as well and know that their tax dollars are being well spent.
