Lil' Rascals Academy

"If your looking more for a day care vibe then this school is for you, as far as cleanliness It’s at 100 percent, and their attention to their infants-to 2 year old's are way better than the 3-5 year old's in my opinion. Academic wise, they have no structure, the staff is all Over the place. Also note your child can’t have any special needs or any behavior issues because they will not tolerate and have no resources or the patience to deal with your child if he /she is overly active . However I will not excuse my child who was attending here his behavior towards the Students, but it is the responsibility of the teachers as well as the parents to be informed and to be in top and have more resources and structure and stability so that the kids can learn and or have these methods to deal with such instances and not just have them play on the playground all day and fend for their own, watching everyone not just eyes on the problematic ones. It is very sad that the school system now in days are not like they used to be in fact I feel as most schools don’t want to deal with problems and or what they call problematic children and although that is fine but you do have to understand that there is a wide variety of children who have issues with behavior and with the right guidance and tools for the children and parents and the staff it would be a better school for your child. In fact If the school had more resources, I would say bring your child here, but Pretty much don’t bring your child here if he or she are overly active children . The school is in a great location though west of pines , just I would think about it twice if you’re looking for more of an educational feel because this school is not."

"I am part of the family circle of Lil Rascals Academy Pembroke Pines for the past 2 years. My experience has been over all positive. Cleanliness, staff, food and fun education are all above average. In contrast the school will NOT cooperate or tolerate special needs children, no accommodations from administration even though my child has no health problems, nor aggression issues. This is in fact a major point Administration should heavily consider finding a resolution since there is tremendous growing population of children who need integration and not be pushed away, more over problems should be faced as a community and not looked away. This is a fact, not an angry mom leaving a review, since this happened to me over 1 year ago and I still use their services. On the other hand, my other child still goes to this school, therefore I would recommend to any family that can benefit of their services as long as their child has 0 needs for therapies or any kind of behavior issues."

"My children have been attending Lil' Rascals since my son was 4 months old. My son is now 5 and my daughter is 9, and even though they have moved on to elementary school, they love going back on non school days. Lil' Rascals is a family! They genuinely care for the children and their families. I couldn't have asked for a better school to care for my children from infant, up until school age. I am going to cry the day they are too old to attend. Take it from a long time parent, whose children take about 15 minutes every time we exit the school, because they must say bye to every one of their teachers, past and present, this is where you want your child to attend."

"Lil rascal’s is a good aftercare place . They have a bus service that picks up from different schools and takes them to lil rascals which is great. The teachers are helpful and nice as well."

"This school does not accept children if they have special needs or a medical issue. I arrived to the location to take a tour and informed the assistant director that my child has a feeding tube and has a nurse that stays with him. Their response was we can no accommodate that, someone should inform them it is illegal and discriminatory to refuse services to disabled children"
