GreatSchools:
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

About the Builder
When forming his vision for Melia Homes, BJ Delzer drew inspiration from his parents, Melvin and Gloria. The “Mel” and the “ia” in Melia, Melvin and Gloria filled their home with a whole lot of heart, a whole lot of kids and a penchant for Christmases spent in Hawaii surrounded by the deep, blue Pacific. Melvin and Gloria are passed now, but their dedication, compassion and fun-loving spirit lives on as the heart and soul of Melia Homes, and in every reflection of Melia blue.
Melia Homes is passionate about providing shelter for families and creating places where some of life’s most cherished memories will form. The companies' hands-on approach to quality, craftsmanship and research-driven design means that they don’t just build homes – they build homes that they're proud of. The company has an unwavering commitment to being at the forefront of design and innovation, a Melia home will always be as unique as those who make it their own.
