If you can get them in WHAM and then Sherwood Middle that's the best bang for your buck. It's a direct path into BRMHS and those schools don't have the issues you associate with the other Government schools and you can save enough to send them to a prestigious University or put that money into your retirement account. The teachers are legit and dedicated for the most part. I would give parental involvement a C compared to the private schools, where parents are MUCH more involved, and I say that as an involved parent.
Catholic is the same as it's always been, a great choice for the Catholic family. Episcopal produces top students but I personally reject the Social pressure of that school, not my cup of tea. Parkview Baptist is a good environment for the average kid,is a very nurturing environment early, but maybe not for the academic superstar later. I graduated from Dunham but I don't really have a true feel for how good that school is. Lots of smart kids there and super-involved parents. Runnels is doing their thing over there-nobody really knows what's going on over there, but everybody seems happy.
For my family the BRHMS magnet school path is easily the best option.

Myth... Usually from people who think they cannot afford it. Friends of ours kids are there and they are by no means rolling in the dough and the school has a very generous scholarship fund anyone can apply for. Their kids are thriving and have friends there from all economic and social backgrounds.
