Proud moment for @MDCPS! For the first time in our history, 9 schools in predominantly Black & Brown communities have earned an “A” rating — a milestone reflecting resilience, dedication, and community pride. This achievement is more than a grade. It’s a testament to the perseverance of our students, the commitment of our educators, and the support of our families. Together, we are rewriting expectations and shaping brighter futures for all. Read article: https://t.co/8bXsDFr2IP #YourBestChoiceMDCPS

Kinetic energy at @libertycityelem today for the Passport to Chess event! It was truly inspiring to see 120 students sharpening their strategy and critical thinking skills through chess. Special thanks to the NFL Sisters in Service, @Chess4LifeLLC, and all the amazing volunteers who made this event possible — your time and support mean the world to our students! Proud to see Miami joining other major cities like Dallas and Seattle in this powerful initiative. This is what community impact looks like! #YourBestChoiceMDCPS
