I am very interested in learning to fly in a cirrus. This will be my
second time working on getting my PPL. I was 14 when I took my first
flying lessons,I'm 43 now, I ended up with 14 hours. Does any body know
of any good flight schools that train in these aircraft? I found a
couple, just looking for others.

I would agree with "a" about the Cirrus and primary instruction. The
Cirrus is a fine airplane and after a thorough checkout with an
instructor current in the aircraft it can be flown safety by most any
pilot. You COULD opt to use it for your primary training but the added
workload in my opinion would place you in a less than optimum learning
environment on an entry level.
For primary instruction , I would highly recommend you consider a more
basic airplane to break in on, then transition easily into something
like the Cirrus.
