Just curious how you feel about Chatham County Schools? Or just Chatham County in general? I hear so much about Wake County and I know Chatham is just around the corner.
The difference in Chatham schools and Wake/Chapel Hill is somewhat laughable. It's not that far from Apex but if you are like many of the other people on here who are paranoid about the education that their 7 year old receives, fork over the extra money and stay in Wake. While they are close in proximity, they are very distant in quality of school environment.
edit: from your name I assume you are teacher looking to come here. A number of teachers use it as a springboard to move to other schools after a year or two. A few years ago there was a turnover rate of roughly 50%. Some moving on to other schools and the rest burning out.
