ABC Learning Prep

Unfortunately, our experience at Chapel Trail Elementary was extremely disappointing and disheartening. As a parent of a child with special needs, I expected professionalism, inclusion, and collaboration — none of which we received.One of the most troubling issues was hearing a speech pathologist refer to children with special needs as “not normal kids.” That language alone speaks volumes about the lack of understanding and compassion toward students who learn differently. My son was frequently excluded from activities because he was seen as “different,” rather than being supported and included.Additionally, I received daily phone calls with various excuses asking me to pick up my son early. Instead of working with me to help him succeed, the approach felt dismissive and unaccommodating.The team was not collaborative in any way, nor did they demonstrate a genuine interest in helping my child thrive academically, socially, or emotionally. As a parent, it was heartbreaking to feel that my child was viewed as a problem rather than a student deserving support and dignity.I would strongly caution other parents of children with special needs to ask very direct questions about inclusion, staff training, and support before enrolling.

Switching from CTE to PRE has truly been a blessing for our family. Our experience with the CTE program was stressful and felt more like a nightmare than a special education support system. In contrast, the team at PRE has been absolutely wonderful. They are collaborative, communicative, and genuinely dedicated to each child’s growth.You can feel how much they care and how hard they work to create an environment where kids can thrive. We are so grateful for the difference they’ve made in our child’s happiness and development. Highly recommend!

This school is wonderful school. My 4 kids went there and they were so happy. Great academic and teachers fantastic… great principal…

My daughter has been attending Sunset Lakes Elementary for 3 years and her experience has been amazing. The teachers and staff are loving and kind. It’s shows how much they care about each student as they they greet them by their name when they see them each morning and in the hallways. This school is a loving and fun environment for the children to learn. The front desk staff are friendly and helpful as well. I am a part of the PTSA and they truly are amazing and contribute much to helping out with the events. They have high achievers class as early as first grade to identify the high achievers and gifted children early for advanced classes. The music program is amazing- the room is filled with large variety of wonderful instruments for children to explore (violin, cellos, xylophones, triangles, guitars, ukulele, drums, drum set, piano). They have a big library with a large collection of books for children to read. Wonderful school!

Montessori Academy of Broward has been a true blessing for our family.As a mother of three children who have attended this school, I can honestly say that choosing Montessori Academy of Broward was one of the best decisions we have ever made for their education and emotional development.From the very beginning, the teachers and staff made my children feel safe, loved, and truly seen as individuals. The Montessori method allowed each of my kids to grow at their own pace, build confidence, and develop a genuine love for learning. My children didn’t just memorize information — they learned how to think, explore, and believe in themselves.What truly sets this school apart is the dedication of the teachers. They are patient, caring, and deeply committed to every child’s success. They took the time to understand my children’s strengths, challenges, and personalities, and they worked closely with us as parents to support them in the best way possible.The environment is calm, respectful, and nurturing — exactly what children need to thrive academically and emotionally. I have seen my children become more independent, responsible, and confident because of the values and structure they learned here.Montessori Academy of Broward is not just a school; it is a community that truly cares about its families. I will always be grateful for the positive impact it has had on my three children, and I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a loving, high-quality education for their child.— Diana Montoya
