If you to:
www.greatschools.net/texas/houston/middle-schools/
You will be able to compare the schools of Houston and choose from there, I personally always go by the ratings from 7-10 rated and their test scores to see how the kids are performing in that school.

I know a few parents who send their kids to Harmony School of Excellence (Gessner) and it seems to have a better rep than Harmony Science Academy (249), but I've never personally investigated either. My son just started HS at The Banff School (on Cutten, just north of Willowbrook mall). It's a very small school, but it's excellent. I'd suggest you check it out.

I'm not sure about the other schools but say "No" to Harmony. I've heard undesirable things.

I haven't heard about the other schools but I have heard a lot of positive things about Harmony Schools. One person I know has a daughter that attended there for middle school and just completed that program. It was rigorous but her daughter is now accepted into the Vanguard program at Debakey's Magnet High School for Medical Professions. She credits Harmony for helping prepare her daughter

no my son does not have any special needs. thank you for the information.
