My daughter was going into Kindergarten. I needed to find a good school. My friend recommended…read moreBridgePrep of NMB Academy. I applied to the school and she did not make the lotto pick so I went on to the BridgePrep of Hollywood Hills. There my daughter did get picked the following week after I applied. The office staff is friendly and Mr Marcelo, the principal greeted me. Fast forward my daughter just graduated Kinder and looking forward to going to first grade. Her teacher Ms. Brevil is excellent. My daughter has learned so much. The principal Mr. Marcelo is super humble and inviting. I live in North Miami Beach area and am willing to drive to Hollywood all over again. I feel the school is in a safe zone. Nice building and well organized.

One of the best cities to live in here in South Florida. I lived in the 305 for over 10 years and…read morehave been so happy living up here in Pembroke Pines. Everything is at your fingertips from malls to restaurants and everything else in between. I have this ongoing joke that there's nothing I don't need that I can't find within 3 miles of my house. The city has great festivals and events all the time. I really like the Veteran's Day ceremony, 4th of July and Easter egg hunt. The staff are always professional and friendly. Both of my children grew up in the schools here. They started in the City of Pembroke Pines pre-school then went through elementary, middle and high school here. I like the public schools better than Charter. Everyone has their opinion. For me it creates a better bond with children that live in our neighborhood. If you are new to the area then you must try the Mayor's Cafe on Taft Street. It is owned by the Mayor of the city and the food is fabulous! If you are looking for a great place to live, this is it!

Hello, I am a parent who enrolled my special needs autistic daughter at New Renaissance Middle…read moreSchool when my daughter was transitioning from 5th grade in Elementary School to 6th grade in Middle School because this was her home school based on our zip code, I honestly did not want to put her in the school because I had read other bad reviews but after applying for a re-assignments 3 times and getting denied, I had no choice but to enroll her at this school. I made sure I provided medical documentations to the school to inform them of the multiple health challenges my daughter has besides autism spectrum disorder, she was placed in an Exceptional Student Education class, on last month on February 24th the teacher called me to inform me that my daughter was having an autism crisis, they never told me that they were going to physically restrain her until I arrived to the school and my daughter was already put on hand cuffs, then the ESE specialist handed me a notice of physical restraint for me to sigh as if they informed me before they put her in hand cuffs, my daughter had an Registered Behavioral Tech who attended school with her daily but on that day in particular her teacher decided to separate her from her Registered Behavioral Tech while he had our daughter take a test when I had already spoke to the ESE specialist in the beginning of the school year and ask for my daughter not to be separated from her behavioral tech since she was there to help address behavior because they tried to give her speech and language therapy without her Registered Behavioral Tech going with her. As a result, my daughter was Baker Acted and transported in a police car in hand cuffs as if she was a criminal, when there was no need for that because once my husband and I arrived at the school our daughter was calmed and on her cuffs, my husband was able to walk her out of the school and put her in our vehicle with no problems, that's when the Police officer who works at the school said she needed to get evaluated and off course my husband and I did not refuse thinking our child was going to get evaluated and sent home after evaluation the same day because she (the officer never said it was a baker act initially and what that meant) but when we got to the hospital the social worker explained and said our 12 year old daughter who had never being left with no one else other than her immediate family had to stay for a 72 hours hold in a psychiatric unit and we could not stay with her but just visit her once a day in the evenings that was so traumatic for us all. and we come to find out that it is illegal to baker act a child with autism in Florida. I am writing this review in hopes that this does not happen to any other child with special needs or autism spectrum disorder at this school. My husband and I agreed to withdraw our daughter from this school because her and all our family experienced such trauma from this event and needless to say we did not trust the school anymore.

Highland Oaks Middle School has been a true blessing for my family…read more My son, attended this school from 6th to 8th grade and flourished both academically and personally. Under the leadership of Principal Mrs. Kushi, the school provides a nurturing, respectful, and high-achieving environment that truly prepares students for the future. Thanks to the support of amazing teachers and staff, my Son passed the state exams with excellent scores and was accepted into the prestigious New World School of the Arts for high school. He found his passion for music here, built confidence, and felt seen and valued every step of the way. Mrs. Kushi leads with heart and excellence. Her presence, communication, and commitment to students' success have made a lasting impact on our family. Thank you, Highland Oaks, for being more than a school -- you are a home, a family, and a launching pad for greatness. -- Waly Rojas, Proud MOM Highland Oaks Middle School, Class of 2025

This school is absolutely terrible. The teachers simply do not care about racism -- they never take…read moreany action when it happens. The food is disgusting; it looks like it was taken out of the trash and they keep serving the same food every day until it's gone. Teachers constantly yell at students for no reason, which causes stress and makes kids not want to go to school. Ms. Kushi, please take action and speak with your staff in the office -- especially Amy McMillan. She is constantly yelling at children. My son comes home upset because in the cafeteria they weren't even allowed to talk, and he was humiliated in front of everyone just for whispering something to his friend. I would also like to mention Miss Fagens. My daughter had class with her, and Miss Fagens treated my child unfairly. My daughter had a friend in that class, and after my daughter switched classes, the teacher came up to her friend and told her that my daughter was "stupid" because she couldn't understand English, and that my daughter was "an uncontrollable child." I want to clarify that my daughter is very quiet and calm at home because she is well-mannered and raised properly. This school is also full of cockroaches and looks dirty and unsafe. I absolutely do not recommend this school.
