See everything in the report

One report.
Six things inside it.

Prepared for one focus child, one family, and one target school year. Sibling schedules count as logistics; a separate shortlist for another child is a separate report.

Delivery target: the complete bundle within 48 hours of complete intake, subject to source availability. No required call. Everything arrives privately as downloadable files: the written report, the MP3 audio guide with its transcript, the discussion guide, and the action kit with calendar files.

  1. The sourced report

    Five to eight schools that pass your hard constraints, with the reason each one is in or out, tuition and fees checked against current sources, commute and aftercare notes, eligibility, application paths, dated citations, and what is still unknown.

  2. The opening decision page

    The two or three options to look at first, the compromise each one asks of your family, and what evidence would change the order.

  3. The audio guide

    Five to seven minutes in plain language, with a full transcript. Your priorities, the tradeoffs that decide it, and your next three actions, ready for the drive to work.

  4. The family discussion guide

    One page of prompts so partners and caregivers agree on the acceptable compromises before the first tour.

  5. The action kit

    A dated application checklist with direct links, calendar entries for confirmed deadlines, three questions for each shortlisted school, a parent-sendable email draft, a post-tour comparison sheet, and your next three actions.

  6. One clarification round

    Ask about anything in your delivered report. A 15-minute call is available on request at no extra charge.

How it works.

Six steps from a free fit check to a delivered bundle, with no required call at any point.

  1. Check fit

    Four answers on this page. Free, and nothing you choose is stored.

  2. Pay $195 once

    The price and everything included are stated before you pay.

  3. Tell us about your family

    A guided intake of about 7 to 10 minutes: your child in everyday words, your routine, your budget, and your priorities. It ends in a summary you confirm.

  4. We research, and a human reviews every report

    Dated primary sources for tuition, deadlines, TEFA participation, and application rules. Anything unconfirmed is marked unknown.

  5. Your bundle arrives

    The written report, the MP3 audio guide with transcript, the family discussion guide, and the action kit, delivered privately within a 48-hour target after complete intake.

  6. Ask what you need to

    One clarification round is included. A 15-minute call is available on request at no extra charge.

How the research works

We take no money from schools.

No referral fees, advertising, or placement payments from any school, district, or network. You pay $195 and the research answers to you.

Every fact is dated and sourced.

Tuition, deadlines, TEFA participation, and application rules are checked against current primary sources before delivery. Anything we cannot confirm is marked unknown rather than guessed.

A seat count is a past fact, never a prediction.

Applications divided by seats is a prior-cycle rate. We report it as context and never present it as your child's chance of admission.

Houston School Path is AI-assisted research and decision support. A human reviewer reads every report before it goes out: the facts, the calculations, the citations, the fit reasoning, and the exclusions. We ask only what the research needs, and never Social Security numbers, medical records, or full school records. We do not contact your current school, or any school, about your family; the questions only a school can answer come to you as a ready-to-send email draft. Your family makes the decision.

Is this report right for your family?

Four quick answers, before any payment. Checking fit is free and stores nothing about your child.

Checking fit is free. It does not confirm school availability or admission eligibility.

Questions parents ask.

Why pay $195 when school directories are free?

Free directories are usually paid for by schools or advertisers, and they stop at sticker tuition and test scores. This report starts from your routine and your budget, checks each fact against a dated source, and is paid for only by you.

Can one report cover more than one child?

One report covers one focus child and one target school year. Sibling drop-offs, shared transport, and family schedules are part of the logistics in every report. A separate shortlist for another child, with different grades and eligibility, is a separate report.

Do you guarantee a place at our first choice?

No. This is research, analysis, and decision support. Prior-cycle applicant and seat counts appear as context, never as a prediction for your child. Your family owns the final decision.

How long does intake take, and when does the report arrive?

After payment, a focused intake takes about 7 to 10 minutes: your child's learning environment, commute limits, budget, and priorities. The complete bundle has a delivery target of 48 hours after complete intake, subject to source availability.

Do I have to get on a call?

No. The report is form-first and delivered asynchronously. One clarification round is included, and a 15-minute call is available on request at no extra charge if you would like to talk it through.

What if our situation changes after we order?

If your brief changes before research begins, update your intake notes and we confirm the revised scope and timing with you. After delivery, the included clarification round covers questions and adjustments for the same child and school year.

Which schools do you cover?

Greater Houston, by school type rather than by district list: HISD School Choice and magnet programs, the Houston-area charter networks, and private schools, including the ones that take TEFA. Your zoned public school, or the school your child attends now, is always part of the comparison when it is one of your real options.

What do you need from me, and what do you never ask for?

Your child's grade and how they learn, in everyday words. Your broad area, not an exact address. Commute limits, budget, funding assumptions, aftercare needs, and what matters most. A parent or guardian completes the intake. We never ask for Social Security numbers, medical records, diagnosis details, or full school records.

How do I receive the report?

As private downloadable files you keep: the written report, the MP3 audio guide with its transcript, the one-page discussion guide, and the action kit with calendar entries for confirmed deadlines. Calendar entries are dated snapshots, not a monitoring service, so the action kit tells you which dates to recheck.

We are moving to Houston. Can you help?

Yes, if the schools you are weighing are in Greater Houston. A move can cross district lines and application systems, so the research is worth doing before you settle on an address. Tell us the areas you are considering and whether the neighborhood is decided; the report treats each area as an option with its own commute and application paths.

Make room for what matters.

A researched Houston shortlist with clear tradeoffs, an audio guide you can listen to on the drive, and a practical plan your family can act on.

AI-assisted research, reviewed by a human before delivery. No required call.
