MV Cook
DCB because it's farther but a good school
Stokes Brookland if you don't mind the poor math stats
LAMB because parents honestly aren't that happy with it, but stay for the DCI feed
Chisholm because closer to you
Global Citizens but mind the new location 
Stokes EE because it's far and has low stats

You could look into Houston DCPS[/quote]

Mundo Verde comes with a lot of drama

Stokes Brookland also has better ELA scores than both MV locations and better math scores than MV Cook.  PP booster has an axe to grind with Stokes for some reason.[/quote]

NP.  I don’t think so.  It’s a well known fact that math is weak at Stokes and their scores were low in the past.  Maybe that has gotten better.

But spanish at Stokes is weak compared to some other charters.  This is 1st hand info from family we know at Stokes.[/quote]

This is NOT a well known fact.  Please cite your source. Spanish instruction is fine and as a native speaker, I would know.  We have first hand info as a Stokes family.  Your second hand info should be disregarded.  [/quote]

If you follow yearly CAPE scores, yes their math scores were not good in the past. Go look at past scores. The data is there. Feel free to also search discussions on here about it.  This is why they switch math to being taught in English.  I would assume this change was because their kids were not understanding math well in the language.

You sound very defensive.  Believe what you want, does not matter to me.  No, I don’t have kids at Stokes but I do know 2 separate families that moved to Stokes from another spanish school and said spanish was much easier.  One of the kids actually said what he was learning was stuff he already learned 2 years ago FWIW.[/quote]
