## Story

Frank Toral has always had a passion for helping others which led him to business ownership and founding Neighborhood Kids Schools. Toral began his career fulfilling his lifelong dream to become an attorney. After successfully running his law practice for 20 years, he left his law career for one as a pastor at a church in Wellington, Florida.

Toral and his wife soon purchased two local preschools in 2016. The schools quickly took off, and the couple was able to open three more locations within two years. Those schools became the foundation for the faith-based preschool franchise brand Neighborhood Kids Schools.

“Neighborhood Kids Schools is the first Faith-based Early Education Franchise in the U.S.,” said Toral. “We are a values-based Early Education School that emphasizes a biblical foundation and provides exceptional early education in a safe, fun and learning environment.”

Toral learned many lessons in the early years of owning the preschool brand. One of the most important lessons he shares with anyone considering business ownership is prioritizing marketing your business. He says that over the years, he’s had mentors that have shared great advice with him. Now that Toral has the opportunity to guide young entrepreneurs, his best advice includes persevering, having a clear vision and devoting yourself to continuous improvement as a leader.
