Barry University proposed a partnership with Miami-Dade County Public Schools to establish a private, tuition-based K-12 school on district property. The school board voted to discuss this partnership, emphasizing that it is an initial step allowing formal negotiations. The proposal hints at developing joint programs and opportunities for both high school and university students. This initiative aims to enhance educational offerings while addressing challenges related to school choice, focusing particularly on underserved community areas.
The partnership between M-DCPS and Barry University offers a unique opportunity to enhance educational offerings, address the challenges of school choice, and set a precedent for innovative public-private collaborations. The partnership can reflect the innovative nature of M-DCPS's commitment to providing high-quality educational opportunities while adapting to the evolving educational landscape.
The proposal contained language that implied the agreement could potentially go beyond just access to district properties, stating 'the partnership can facilitate the development of joint programs, internships, and research opportunities that benefit both high school and university students.'
