That statistic didn't make sense to me in light of what we know about Florida and Broward County schools compared to other parts of the country. I tried Googling that and this is what I came up with: on Forbes' list of "Best School Districts for Your Housing Buck" (April, 2011), Parkland appears #1 in the "Homes $400,000 to $599,000." That is the only category it appears in on the list. The way you are saying it implies that Parkland, as a town, has the best schools in the US. That isn't what Forbes was saying. All they were doing is comparing standardized test scores and Great Schools ratings to how much you pay for a home there. No doubt as the prices of homes climbs back up, the ratio will not be as favorable, and Parkland may struggle to stay on the list.
