If you have school-aged children and you're in the market for a home in the Piedmont Triad area, your home purchase decision may be based on where your children will go to school. In North Carolina, the quality of schools varies widely from county to county and school to school. Some families decide to buy the homes they want in the neighborhoods they like, without worrying about the school zoning. Instead, they opt to send their children to one of the many private schools in Greensboro.
