Some of the best parts of being a part of Miami Dade County Public Schools are the teachers, curriculum, and programs. During the summer, there are plenty of events and dates where there are school supplies given and much more that help parents with the stress of a new school year. In addition, during the school year, students are given many opportunities to succeed like their tutoring system and much more.
However, many other things can be improved and looked on. For example, the environment of schools has become dirtier with more violence and bullying. Students' bathrooms are not properly taken care of and are left unsanitary. The growth in violence and bullying has become impossible to overlook. In addition, the organization and management can be improved as well. Whether this requires hiring more teachers and support staff. Sometimes, teachers are left with 30-40 students in one class which makes it harder for students to receive one-on-one attention.
