It's not horrible for us either because all of DH's extended family lives on the west side of MN, and then our immediate families are in WI. so we would be right in the middle then.</p> <p>But.....it's still on the fence....but I would rather be prepared.</p> <p>I told my husband though I will forever bleed green and gold! (or blue for the Brewers!) I will never convert! hahahah </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-info-about-school-districts#post-780594 Tue, 14 May 2013 12:05:51 +0000 mrsmenow 780594@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsBrewer: OMG....NOOOOOOOOO....</p> <p>I do have a cousin who moved to Minneapolis and got married there. We really like it when we traveled for the wedding. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-info-about-school-districts#post-780591 Tue, 14 May 2013 12:03:18 +0000 T.H.O.U. 780591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Check out the state department of education. Some states rank their districts and even their schools. </p> <p>If that doesn't turn up anything, there is standard reporting that all schools must to and it is posted on ed.gov. It takes some knowledge to know how to read it all but if you have questions let me know. I do this stuff for a living. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-info-about-school-districts#post-780558 Tue, 14 May 2013 11:52:08 +0000 MrsBrewer 780558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsmenow: Just outside of WI...Minneapolis :-( With all of those nasty Vikings fans......booo...hahahah </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-info-about-school-districts#post-780523 Tue, 14 May 2013 11:40:22 +0000 mrsmenow 780523@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsBrewer: Still in Wisconsin?

Most states publish information like test scores, reviews, etc... on their education department websites, and if the school district is large enough, it might have it's own website as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-info-about-school-districts#post-780149 Tue, 14 May 2013 09:44:20 +0000 regberadaisy 780149@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know Business First does one each year for my area. Maybe check to see if they do one for yours since it's not a local publication?</p> <p>Or US News? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-find-info-about-school-districts#post-780135 Tue, 14 May 2013 09:41:37 +0000 MrsBrewer 780135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm researching another city right now, and I know nothing about the area or school districts.</p> <p>Does anyone know if there is some kind of nation-wide website ranking school districts? </p>
