 An outstanding teaching and support staff has made the Plymouth-Canton Community Schools well known throughout the state. The District, 54 square miles, encompasses the City of Plymouth, Plymouth Township and parts of Canton, Northville, Salem and Superior Townships The Plymouth-Canton School District boasts the only educational park in the State of Michigan. Known as the Plymouth-Canton Educational Park (P-CEP), it is a 305-acre site, which serves as the location of three four-year comprehensive high schools, Canton, Plymouth, and Salem. The buildings, completed in 2002, house over 220 teachers, counselors, and learning specialists, with a student population of about 5,170. Courses available to students, who participate interchangeably at either of the two schools, range from auto mechanics through foreign languages to calculus and cover all the areas in between. Athletic facilities at the Park include swimming pools, gymnasiums, and an 8,000-seat athletic stadium used jointly by both schools. Every school in the District has a media center staffed by a certified librarian and is served by specialists in art, music, physical education and learning problems. The District welcomes inquiries about individual schools or the school program. Such inquiries can be made to the E. J. McClendon Educational Center or to individual school principals. Arrangements for visits to any school building can also be made in this way Canton is served by three school districts. Plymouth-Canton Community Schools services a large majority of Canton. Wayne-Westland services the southeastern neighborhoods, and Van Buren Public Schools services the southwestern neighborhoods: http://www.wcresa.k12.mi.us/vanburen/SCHwhich.htm. Boarders for each of these school systems can be very difficult to distinguish, please consult a school system map or call me for further direction. Plymouth-Canton School District Facts

Remember, I consult with people moving to the Plymouth, Canton and Northville area on a daily basis. It's my job to know, and my job to tell you. Call me for a first-hand experience of the local schools. Or fill out this form to send me a message. It's free and without obligation.
Closing or Settlement >The Settlement
The final stage of a home sale transaction is the time to tie up all the loose ends. The buyer and seller will sign the settlement sheet at the closing, detailing all of the charges that each party has incurred during the sale of the house. It is crucial to go over the sheet for accuracy and to make sure that you understand everything on it before you complete the transaction.
When a contract is negotiated, each side agrees how to divide the loan fees (or points), as well as the other closing charges, such as state or local taxes or escrow fees. Your real estate agent can go over the settlement sheet and help you compare it with your purchase agreement. The seller's charges usually include the brokerage fee, the mortgage payoff, and any charges involved in clearing the title, as well as pro-rated property taxes, payments for termite treatment and escrow for repairs that could not be completed by closing. The buyer's costs include charges for the loan and title searches, insurance and any other legal fees. A good closing officer will go over the settlement sheet line by line, explaining each item and correcting any misplaced charges.
