Those are a little dated.

In any case, as others have suggested, trying to apply objective criteria to something that is so much more about fit is a fool's errand.  First, start by trying to narrow your choices by a few criteria - location (it doesn't matter if School X is the absolute best of all the others if it is going to take you 2 hours each way to commute there every day); educational philosophy (do you want more traditional versus progressive - and yes, there's lots of room in between those); price; K-12 vs K-8; religious vs. non-religious (and there's a spectrum here too).

Once you've got a list of schools, go visit, talk with families who go to those schools, etc, etc.

Good luck![/quote]
