Hendersonville is a great place to raise a family. Henderson County schools  continue to have one of the highest graduation rates in the state and a dropout rate continues to decline. Last year 83.84% of Hendersonville students went on to post-secondary institutions, 3.86% entered the military, and 12.30% entered the job market. All four of Hendersonville public middle schools have received national recognition for their emphasis on strong academics, sensitivity to adolescents’ needs and interest, and commitment to equal access to high-quality education; thus earning the designation as Schools to Watch.  SAT and ACT scores continue to be above the state and national average. Hendersonville schools continue to receive positive recognition for student performance on the North Carolina ABCs accountability model.  Students excel in many extracurricular areas such as band, chorus, and athletics.  Spending time together as a family in the beautiful mountains of Western North Carolina is a wonderful thing. At Mountain Oak Properties we want to help you to find the best property for you and your family. We have a knowledge of the area and raise our families here.
