[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are some good public schools in Broward. My kids go to one! We have many APs, Honors, and (this is specific to FL and maybe a few other states) AICE exams/the AICE diploma. Broward is not showy rich at all for the most part. In fact, this is why we moved here. Out of the schools you listed, American Heritage is the only one I'd consider if in Plantation. It's a good school and right there. For sports, St Thomas further in Fort Lauderdale is THE school. [/quote] which school do your kids go to? or any public schools you specifically recommend? [/quote] I won’t say, not Plantation though. There are a few (not many) good public schools in Broward. You can find them fairly easily. [/quote] NP. My kids went elementary and middle school in Weston - supposedly the best public schools (or among the best) that south FL has to offer. They were just OK. I think families that come from decent to good schools up north will find south Florida public schools to be lacking. We moved to FL from Maryland/MCPS and then "half backed" to the Triangle area of NC four years later, and both were/are leagues above what we experienced in FL. If we were to stay in FL long term, we definitely would have done private for at least high school (and I say this as someone who never, for a second, considered private school in MoCo or North Carolina) and then taken advantage of in-state tuition for college. Cypress Bay HS would have been a non-starter.[/quote] I guess everyone has a different perspective and experience.[/quote]
