An article in Wednesday’s Miami Herald stated that Miami-Dade County Public School District students outperform their national peers on their National Assessment in Education Progress (NAEP) exams.

The quality of our public schools and the educational options we provide parents, increase Miami’s ability to attract and maintain businesses by providing an educated workforce. Increased businesses = increased # employees = increase in home sales.

Miami Palmetto High School has long had a reputation of being a great high school and many families move into Pinecrest or Palmetto Bay so their children can attend. There are other areas west of U.S 1 that are often overlooked that also have Miami Palmetto High School as their home school.

This house, at 12150 SW 88 Avenue, is such a house. At 4,747 square feet, there is plenty of room for a large family. The split floor plan has a separate children’s suite complete with their own play/study room. The expansive family room has enough space for sitting and relaxing or playing games. More for your money and still a great school district!

As Miami-Dade County Public Schools wraps up their academic calendar and students get ready for their summer vacation that starts later this week, I am amazed at how rapidly another school year flew by. My children are wrapping up their last years of high school and I am grateful that I live in a community that appreciates the difficulties the public schools are experiencing, both economically and because of increased competition, and steps up to the plate to assist.
