Medium tier vs low tier

[mudgean]

My goal is to teach at a community college. I have no ambition to become a researcher or a lecturer at a top university.

Right now I'm trying to decide between a program that is ranked in the top 100, and one that I don't see any ranking for at all. The second one is much cheaper. Both schools will offer me a stimulating intellectual experience and the MA that I need to teach at a two year college. I already have a teaching credential and experience with kids.

My questions is, does status of the program matter? Will community colleges really care if I went to the higher ranked program?

I'm wondering if anyone has any knowledge or experience with this.
