Our family (my husband, 10 year old son and I) are relocating to Pittsburgh after Christmas. I am very excited but feel at present like my brain will explode with the information I'm trying to absorb in such a short time! I've been researching schools and neighborhoods and have tentatively settled on the following neighborhoods: Point Breeze, Shadyside, Squirrel Hill, Highland Park, Oakland, and maybe Mt. Washington or the South Side. Can anyone help me out with pros and cons?

For schools (our son will be completing 5th grade upon our arrival) I'd like to know about Dilworth, Liberty, Minadeo, and Phillips for fifth grade, and CAPA, International Baccalaureatte, Sterrett, and the Pittsburgh Science and Tech Academy after that.

I understand there are currently no elementary schools in Oakland. What about Mt. Washington?

We are really excited about our move and hope that the folks that know can help us make an advised choice.

Sorry I can't really help you. It seems as if you want pretty specific information about the city schools. The only thing I that I know is that Mindadeo has a pretty good reputation.
