Reviews

Miami Dade County Public Schools: An honest review.

As much as I want to sugarcoat the situation in our current school district I honestly cannot. Its amazing that my education has excelled thus far even though this school district does nothing to excel my education other than teach me the knowledge of a standardized test. I have been a student of MDCPS for 9 years, ever since 3rd grade, And having gone to some other school districts, this one is honestly, the worse and I've attended Philadelphia's school district. Now my personal experience will be varied upon schools in the Homestead/Florida city area, *personal experiences may vary. Most teachers here are somewhat passionate about their jobs. I know a few teachers that honestly, should be working at universities and seminars. Others that shouldn't even be teachers, and some that are average. The largest problem in this school district is fraternization and language discrimination. A large problem of teachers are friends with the students and do not discipline based on the problem at hand. Corruption with grades, Overlooking bullying and other key issues is just the normality in this school district. I'm honestly sure by writing this, I am subject to retaliation myself. The school food is not very nutritious but you get what you pay for, I applaud Alberto Carhalvo for his move to make all lunches free during the hurricane, and his 7 day recess to the school district. My other issue is the sheer amount of days we have as a school district, considering we surpass the recommended output of educational hours/days we shouldn't have to make up the 7 days on the recess. Now, another thing I can applaud is the school website, Considering they do constant ITS maintenance and updating, I can assure you that you or your child or whomever is reading this can check their grades. They also have social media and different platforms of communication to their disposal. Another issue is the bathrooms, now this I will lie on the students and not the school district themselves. They're are many posters around my school at least that advertise the "Project S.C.R.U.B." Program and how you can call to report a custodial issue. A lot of our bathrooms in our school smell of marijuana, mind you a schedule 1 drug by federal law, the bathrooms are also untidy, smell of urine and other human matter that I will not chose to talk about. The custodians can be seen around the school grounds and will not hesitate to clean a mess, so I will not take off points for that issue. The curriculum could use some work though, such as taking off standardized tests as a graduation requirement, as most students aren't very avid test takers and the stress the school district put on the students to pass these tests are unlike anything precedented in modern educational history. The Internet courses and Online learning are somewhat unreliable and sometimes down. There are entire classes using an internet text book with students using Second Rate tablets at best. The contracts to use said Tablets are subject to question as indentured slavery, using community service as a repossession technique. The school's do not do enough to help students in certain areas, but are trying and I will not blame them due to the copious amount of students within our school and school district. The School buses are unreliable and unsafe in some cases, I've gone without a bus driver for over 3 months to return from school. But as a summary, this school district does what it can to provide for its students, some schools will vary by administration, budget and so forth. There are some issues within the school district, but with that comes solutions, that I personally hope, will come soon.

I, myself, as a student in one of the Miami-Dade County schools think it is absolute torture in there. I sometimes get bored of simple and plain foods. Even if we had vegetables, they are still greasy. They don't even serve food that are good. The bathrooms can speak for themselves. They are literally covered in wet toilet paper, and they always smell horrendous.

Unfortunately there is too much corruption in this school system. Parents usually have escalate uncomplicated matters due to nonchalant and lazy staff members. Beware of Dr. Ruan at the South Region location. My nephew was bullied in elementary school and this sadist sent the school police to harass and intimidate my sister. Trickle down effect.
