Miami-Dade County Public Schools (M-DCPS) is still accepting Magnet program applications for the 2024-2025 school year. The enrollment period for Magnet programs across the school district opened in October and runs through January 15, 2024.

New for this year, all applications are only being accepted exclusively through the M-DCPS Parent Portal. Families can access the Parent Portal by visiting yourchoicemiami.org where they will be prompted to sign into the portal with their Google or Apple ID, regardless of whether or not they have a child already enrolled in M-DCPS. Families can choose up to five programs.

For the past 50 years, M-DCPS has provided a high-quality education that inspires, challenges and prepares students for success in an ever-changing world through Magnet programming. This year, students in all grade levels can apply to more than 375 Magnet programs and specialized courses with unique thematic strands of study, designed to cater to students’ special interest, talents and abilities. Students will be selected for each program through a random selection process, and notification letters will be sent out around March 15, 2024.

Through M-DCPS’ Magnet programs, students prepare to thrive and excel in post-secondary education and the workplace, making it the best choice for education in Miami-Dade. Some of the available programs include STArts and STArts² (Science, Technology and Arts Exploration & Innovation programs with an emphasis on Visual/Graphic Arts, Dance/Kinetic Movement, or Digital Music Production), Gaming/Design & Animation, Coding and App Development with Apple™, Criminal Justice, Global Trade & Logistics, Building Trades & Construction Design Technology.
