West Broward High School: Difference between revisions
→Attendance zone: The page stated that portions of Miramar were zoned for West Broward, and it provided a link to the boundary map as evidence. However, the boundary map shows that the school's southern boundary is Pembroke Road. Since Miramar is south of Pembroke Road, with Pembroke Road serving as the border between Pembroke Pines and Miramar, that means that no part of Miramar is within the school boundary.
