Miami-Dade County Public Schools is a countywide school system, and it is the fourth largest system in the nation.

Management of schools is totally independent of metropolitan and city governments. The metropolitan government collects the school tax for the school system, but exercises no control over its use.

The nine-member School Board is elected by single member districts. Regular, open meetings are generally held in the Board auditorium each month on a Wednesday at one o’clock.

Responsibility for administration of schools is vested in the District Superintendent, appointed by the Board. The school district is divided into six regions, each with a region superintendent and administrative staff.
