Family Testimonials

At North Broward Prep, the voices of our families reflect the profound impact Lighthouse Point Academy has on students’ lives.

“The LPA Program has been changing life for our son. Entering the school as a freshman from a much smaller environment, we were worried about how he would fit in and keep up both academically and socially. Nearly two years later, he is an Honor Roll Student, on the Swim Team and has a great group of friends.

The school, teachers and faculty are amazing and really understand each and every child, setting them up for success every step of the way. North Broward Prep as a whole has exceeded our expectations and our family will be eternally grateful for everything they have done and continue to do for our son.” - David B.

“I have two children who have benefited from being in LPA classes. They both struggled to keep up with their schoolwork, and once they were placed in LPA, they were able to work and learn at their own pace. The amount of support they receive has changed the way they view learning and has helped them gain confidence.

Additionally, while we were concerned that being in LPA would alienate our children from the general population, this is not the case at all. We are extremely grateful for this program." - Jen S.
