We switched schools to come here in 2nd grade and I'll just quote my almost 8 year old - "Hunter is the best school on the east coast!" He is a nerd and he has found his nerdy people! The electives are incredible, the teachers are incredible, and everyone is just so kind and normal and excited to be there. He goes to school happy and comes home happy. I couldn't ask for a better school for him and I'm thrilled to be a part of such a special place.

"I have lived in this area for the past 4 years and have really enjoyed it. On days with nice weather my wife and I consistently walk to the area around Raleigh Times and have a drink or just enjoy the area. Lots to do and see and there is always something going on. Crime has been no more of a problem for me than when I lived in Cary and all the extra entertainment and convenience really makes it a fun place to live. "
