Thanks all for the info!

Yes, Brewster, I am thinking of moving from DTJC to one of those cheap mansions in the Heights. That's why I'm trying to do a bit of research.

Check out www.parentheses.co as well. Parental insights on local schools. Some fees involved but a great product.

The staff at these middle schools are likely the best source of info on elementary school quality.

Why aren't you asking specifically about Cordero, your local school? Unless you're planning on moving, the rest don't matter much. You should also look into the charters. I haven't really heard much about some of the newer ones. And keep in mind if your kid is bright, there's the MS4/A1 magnet middle school programs when they're of age.

I take Greatschools reviews with a grain of salt. Lots of the bad reviews of LCCS are the disgruntled entitled upset that they didn't get their way, and clearly some reviews of other schools were solicited by the administration.

The online forums have unreliable and scarce information. The FB pages of the public school is one place to start. The official website is also good for limited info: http://www.jcboe.org/boe2015/

The best way is to find parents whose kids go to the school you are interested in and talk to them.
