American Heritage is really good. Something like a third of the graduating class was NMSF or Commended.

- American Heritage
- Pine Crest
- NSU University School
- North Broward Prep

We will most likely be living in Plantation, so I’m specifically focusing on these schools for proximity’s sake but would be willing to drive a little further if there is a great school I’m missing.

TIA!


Have friends at Pinecrest and NBP, all very happy for different reasons. Pinecrest is stronger academically, and attracts all NE transplants looking for a Sidwell-like community and environment. NBP is more holistic and friendly, I'd say fewer people from NYC there.

Just one major point about American Heritage: They give “scholarships” to many kids who do well on their entrance tests, and thus many, i mean MANY students are on “Financial Aid”. Most of the kids therefore don’t have a “preppy” background and just are semi smart poor kids that couldn’t afford to go if not for scholarships. I personally think it’s not worth it if you’re full pay, the classes are huge and feels like a public school for the reason mentioned above.
