If you’re a parent living in the Key, chances are you or someone you know is looking for the best situation for your child. And though private schools have their perks, Miami-Dade County Public Schools (M-DCPS) have had exceptional achievements in the past few years, especially with some schools close to the island.
Recently, M-DCPS was presented with 78 awards in total for the 2022-23 award cycle – making them the only district in the country to do this.
Every year, the MSA recognizes magnet schools and programs for reasons like their curriculum innovation and parent-community involvement.
