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

* With the exception of Miami-Dade County, the cost per
pupil has been computed by Educational Research Service,
Inc. by dividing the total district's projected operating
expenditures (per adopted annual budget) by K-12 student
membership as of Fall 1998. For Miami-Dade County, the "Cost
Per Pupil" represents the actual expenditure per full-time
equivalent K-12 pupil (PK-12 Programs).
** Does not represent actual or typical class size. Ratio
has been computed by dividing student membership by total
number of classroom teachers.
*** 1997-98 data.
