Awesome presentation about Sharon Elementary!
I agree! If I had elementary age kids I would want them in this school.
Have a great week Debe!
Debe, great presentation and links for those wishing to have their children go to this school.
Great post highlighting one of the many wonderful schools of distinction in the Charlotte area, Debe!
SOunds like a great school system...it is nice that you highlight it for your relocating clients too!
What a helpful post. Shannon ES seems like a great school and Charlotte is lucky to have you to highlight all of the local features!
Debe, do they kill you in taxes in NC, here in Pa they tax your property with a hefty school tax, the schools are like palaces, however alot of people are starting to sell their homes because they cannnot afford to pay the taxes, it's big problem here in Pa
This is great information for families looking to relocate. We have a great school system in our area and I know I appreciate it.
Debe ---- now, why had I not thought about a localism post on a school -- great post. BTW, enjoyed speaking with you this afternoon.
When do you sleep Debe? Sounds like the elementary program is superlative...Cherise
Debe I agree this is a fantastic school. If you ever want to do a blog post on Elon Park elementary let me know. I have two pretty good students there.
