<strong>2017</strong> / PRIVATE SCHOOL GUIDE l 1
From the Editor<br />
The first weeks of<br />
our new school year<br />
have provided good<br />
space and time for<br />
reflection on what<br />
we want our goals<br />
to be for this academic<br />
year. We have<br />
constantly seen fast<br />
changes in education<br />
and with it, we<br />
see the challenges<br />
that students face. It is important we continue to<br />
recognize, appreciate, and encourage our students<br />
as they work towards fulfilling their aspriations.<br />
Featured in this issue is our article, Academic<br />
Programs & Achievements, a highlight of unique<br />
academic programs available and their school’s<br />
scholastic achievements. These schools work<br />
tirelessly to foster these special programs so that<br />
our children not only achieve their potential but<br />
receive the merited recognition.<br />
North Broward Preparatory School is this<br />
issue’s featured school on our cover. As an Apple<br />
Distinguished School, with unique global opportunities<br />
and a personalized learning experience,<br />
NBPS serves as a prime example of a school that<br />
is committed to providing an exemplary educational<br />
experience with an emphasis on the development<br />
of critical thinking. As a Nord Anglia<br />
Education school, they are part of a prestigious<br />
global educational family, comprised of 42 international<br />
schools, boarding schools, and private<br />
schools located in 15 countries around the world.<br />
As part of their philosophy to be ambitious,<br />
they have recently collaborated with renowned<br />
universities such as The Juilliard School and<br />
MIT in order to further enrich their programs.<br />
This year may be coming to an end soon<br />
but the academic year is ahead of us with the<br />
wonderful opportunity to be ambitious and<br />
achieve. We hope that our hard work continues<br />
to be one of the guiding lights on this educational<br />
path for your families. On behalf of everyone at<br />
Private Schools Guide and Summer Camp Fun,<br />
we thank you and we look forward to catching up<br />
with you in our special double-issue in the spring.<br />

North<br />
Broward<br />
Students<br />
Finish<br />
Strong at<br />
Solar Car Challenge<br />
North Broward Preparatory School has an incredible<br />
group of high school Robotics students who recently proved<br />
that dedication and passion for what you love to do is a winning<br />
combination! For the first time ever, the NB Robotics team of<br />
students set about designing and building a solar car. Not just<br />
some remote controlled toy – but an actual large-scale car operating<br />
on solar power that would end up taking second place in<br />
a national competition.<br />
In collaboration with MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology),<br />
North Broward Prep’s STEAM (Science Technology<br />
Engineering Arts and Math) program enables students to take<br />
science, engineering, and technology education to a whole new<br />
level. Under the direction of North Broward Robotics teacher<br />
Mr. Steve Craw and the mentorship of several professional engineers<br />
including two from Motorola, the Robotics team (also<br />
known as Eaglebotics) set out to conceptualize, design, build<br />
and ultimately race a solar-powered car. Beginning last September<br />
and stretching into the summer, students worked six<br />
days a week on their prototype, dedicating many hours including<br />
time spent after school, on holiday breaks and on weekends.<br />
They used chromology tubing -- a high-strength steel -- and<br />
complex welding techniques to build the car. The car is built<br />
with a solar panel that when fully charged, allows the car to run<br />
for six hours a day.<br />
The team worked diligently on their solar car, but hit a glitch<br />
in June when the car was ready to have shocks put on the front<br />
end, but there was an issue with the design, and the car wouldn’t<br />
drive. They analyzed the problem and installed some steel bars<br />
that thankfully resolved the problem. In July, the team set out<br />
for Dallas, Texas to prepare for the national race at the Texas<br />
Motor Speedway, a NASCAR track where they would compete<br />
with 30 other high schools from all around the country. Considering<br />
this was their first-ever solar car, Steve Craw says his<br />
goal was to see the car start the race, endure the race, and finish,<br />
regardless of how they placed. But of course, it’s hard not to<br />
want to win.<br />
Thirty competitors arrived in Texas, and six had to drop out<br />
before the race even began due to problems with their cars.<br />
Beginning on July 16th, after official “scrutineering” to make<br />
sure the cars were fit to compete, 24 competitors took to the<br />
track to race and began a four-day competition. Our Eaglebotics<br />
solar car completed 321 laps and raced for a total of 481<br />
½ miles! The competition was fierce, but North Broward took<br />
2nd place in the Solar Car Challenge – an unbelievable feat for<br />
a first-year run.<br />
Next year’s race is going to be a cross-country challenge, racing<br />
from Dallas, Texas to Palmdale, California. Steve Craw<br />
and his Robotics team are going for the gold. Says Craw, “It’s<br />
been a great ride. There’s a spirit and artistry that goes into<br />
this. Watching the impossible become possible.” With the trial<br />
and error process that comes along with the territory when<br />
you undertake building a solar car from scratch, you have to<br />
have a certain amount of grit and resilience. As Steve Craw<br />
says, learning to overcome failure is the most important takeaway<br />
students get from this experience. “You don’t learn from<br />
success – you learn from failure.”<br />
At the core of the collaboration between MIT and Nord<br />
Anglia Education Schools is the reflection of MIT’s philosophy<br />
of ‘Mens et Manus’, ‘mind and hand’, which calls for a hands-on<br />
approach to problem solving. The Eaglebotics Team is part of<br />
North Broward’s overall curriculum that helps students develop<br />
key transferable skills, such as creativity, critical thinking,<br />
curiosity and communication, which can be employed across all<br />
academic subjects, and in future careers. n<br />

Conchita Espinosa Academy Inaugurates<br />
the Alicia Espinosa Library<br />
ESPINOSA ACADEMY<br />
CEA is more than a school.<br />
It is a place where children learn more about more,<br />
where the seeds of curiosity and compassion are cultivated from the start.<br />
At CEA, your child is encouraged to take chances and to always<br />
do his or her best. This guided process of self-discovery instills in your<br />
child’s heart a resilience and confidence that will last a lifetime.<br />
Analytical, imaginative, confident, and ever-kind,<br />
CEA alumni follow their dreams – and,<br />
more often than not – they live them.<br />
DADE<br />
On Friday, September 22, Conchita Espinosa Academy inaugurated<br />
the Alicia Espinosa Library. A new state-of-the-art<br />
facility, the library will be available to all K3-8th students at<br />
CEA. The library is dedicated to Alicia Espinosa (1917-<strong>2017</strong>),<br />
co-founder of Conchita Espinosa Academy. For over 80 years,<br />
Alicia Espinosa fostered her sister, Conchita’s, dreams of building<br />
a school and conservatory and made sure they worked. She<br />
handled the practical side of running the school, while her sister,<br />
Conchita, was the visionary. For many years, Alicia took care<br />
of the finances, the paperwork, and the numerous logistics that<br />
go into guiding a school. She was the first one to arrive each<br />
day, turning on the lights, greeting the children, and preparing<br />
everything for students and teachers to have a place where they<br />
could soar. She was never one to seek the limelight. She didn’t<br />
look for recognition or praise. She had no love of power, but she<br />
knew deeply the power of love and shared that with everyone<br />
she knew. She made a difference with her loyalty, her consistency,<br />
and her gifts of music and good sense. At the heart of all<br />
libraries are good stories. At the heart of all good stories are<br />
beautiful memories and important lessons. This library is dedicated<br />
to Alicia Espinosa, at the heart of CEA. n<br />

What Makes<br />
A Good School<br />
GREAT?<br />
What defines a great school? That was the question that<br />
was perplexing Bill Jackson, founder of GreatSchools.org. Realizing<br />
that test scores were holding more weight than they should<br />
as the single measure of greatness, he devised a more balanced<br />
rating system for schools. He changed the formulas to also factor<br />
in student or academic progress, college readiness, equity rating,<br />
and advanced courses. They also identified five pillars by<br />
which to measure a school’s climate and culture. This qualitative<br />
research found that climate and culture should center around<br />
robust teacher support, active family engagement, supportive<br />
environmental conditions, strong social and emotional student<br />
growth, and a school-wide climate of high expectations. These<br />
pillars are what catapult good schools into becoming great ones.<br />
Robust teacher support lays the framework for the health of<br />
a school. A healthy environment is a direct product of the interactions<br />
between students, teachers, administrators, and staff.<br />
Teacher support starts with listening, where each student knows<br />
that their story is heard and that their abilities and needs are<br />
understood as individuals.<br />
Effective parent involvement is a result of a genuine partnership<br />
that exists between schools and families. Active family<br />
engagement, especially around academics, is a shared responsibility<br />
and commitment to a student’s learning and development.<br />
A supportive learning environment is more than just<br />
resources and the physical classroom. It is also an environment<br />
where every student feels valued, included, and empowered.<br />
Students thrive where safety and belonging are acknowledged<br />
and practiced. A genuine supportive environment fosters a<br />
strong classroom community, promotes self-esteem and self-efficacy,<br />
and inspires students to take risks.<br />
While the importance of strong academics and high test scores<br />
is well-documented, early social and emotional learning<br />
skills are critical for long-term school and life success. Students<br />
establish social and emotional characteristics that are both<br />
critical in college and invaluable to employers. These skills will<br />
The benefits of holding students to high expectations have<br />
been well documented over time. Harvard Professor Robert<br />
Rosenthal is well known for his research on experimenter expectancy<br />
effects. Through his experiment, he discovered that when<br />
teachers expected students to increase their IQ, students did. This<br />
phenomenon whereby higher expectations lead to an increase in<br />
performance became known as The Pygmalion effect or Rosenthal<br />
effect. A school-wide climate of high expectations is also more<br />
than just a rigorous curriculum. It culminates with holding<br />
students accountable for their behaviors and expecting them to<br />
have self-control and responsibility. These high expectations<br />
should extend past students to teachers as well. Teachers should<br />
equally be held accountable for the learning and development of<br />
their students.<br />
While it is important that test scores and curriculum not be<br />
ignored, they should not be the be-all and end-all for what makes<br />
a good school great. A school’s climate and culture need to be<br />
carefully observed and evaluated and a good place to start is with<br />
the student body. n<br />

PAYING FOR<br />
PRIVATE SCHOOL<br />
Private school education has become more accessible and may be<br />
more affordable than most people think. A majority of schools are<br />
willing to accommodate families by providing flexibility and assistance<br />
for them to be able to afford a private education. Outside of assistance<br />
from each individual school, there are also outside resources that can<br />
significantly ease the financial burden of a private education.<br />
The Florida Department of Education is a good place to start. They<br />
currently provide four scholarship programs, allowing parents an<br />
unprecedented choice among schools. According to their website, the<br />
Florida Tax Credit Scholarship Program has allowed for more than<br />
92,000 Florida students to attend a private school, an increase of more<br />
than 13,400 students from last year. In addition to these programs offered<br />
by The Florida Department of Education, below are some other<br />
resources that can help you plan and finance a private education.<br />
