Miami-Dade County Public Schools (M-DCPS) is hosting special events across the school district to celebrate completed school bond projects resulting from the overwhelming voter approval of the $1.2 billion General Obligation Bond. The bond is being used to modernize and construct school buildings throughout the district, expand student capacity, enhance facility safety, and provide technology upgrades at all schools. Upgrades and new buildings for school sites are well into the design process, in preparation for construction. New wireless infrastructure has been installed, paving the way for schools to move into the digital age.
