I really had high hopes for this school but this school was horriable and cruel. I could go on and on but it's better to let go. I do not recommend this school to anyone. Extremely stressful place for a child.

I have been a parent at NBPS for six years. I have found it to a wonderful environment for my children. The new ownership has created a tighter,better run school over the past few years.

My two sons attend The North Broward Preparatory School and we are happy with this school. This is our fourth year at the lower school.

From the earliest years, enrichment classes include: Mandarin, Spanish, Art, Music, Computer Library, and P.E.; My sons are in a welcoming, nurturing and safe environment. Classes are small and the teachers use the curriculum to inspire curiosity and build confidence. They develop individual learning plans to help each student succeed. The only downside is the tuition continues to go up almost 10 % annually....very expensive! Read less

My child just started kindergarten at the CS campus. And I am not happy with it.

After a combined 18 years with NBPS- we are seeking alternative schools for our kids. Tuition is extremely high- especially in a down market. Our son comes home regularly and talks about the owner's Maybach (a $300,000 car) and how he leaves it running while he's inside. Do you think this is a bit over

Most kids are very privledged and the snobbery is obscene. Kids of 10 & 11 with Imacs and Iphones. I find it obscene. There are 'A' rated schools in our neighborhood as well as highschool programs where the grads go to top level schools and the programs is already an International Baccalaureate School- North Broward is 'trying' for this certification by 2012. Look elsewhere. Read less

So sorry to say that we are leaving NB. When we joined the school community 5 years ago, the teacher turnover was non-existent. Now, it changes from year to year.
