Avant Garde Academy could make a lot of renovations--such as separating the building of upper school from the lower school one--in order to make the environment better for everyone. That and also check their teachers, since some are not so qualified to do their job.

My experiance here at Avant Garde Academy of Broward has been a good one overall. The teachers all care about the students and work hard to get us where we need to be and beyond. Majority of the staff here cares about the students in terms of education.
