Miami-Dade County Public Schools (M-DCPS) held its 29th annual Principal TODAY yesterday, with more than 400 principals and community leaders registered to participate. This is one of M-DCPS' signature programs, which focuses on developing partnerships that support public education.

This annual event is a win-win for public education and the South Florida community. It allows M-DCPS to showcase the magic happening in our schools while forming partnerships that result in internships and mentoring for the benefit of students.

Every year, school principals have the option to choose a partner or be paired with one through outreach to local chambers and the business community at-large.

Individuals stepping into the principal’s shoes ranged from CEOs of for-profit and non-profit organizations, elected officials, small business owners and members of the media.

The event is held in partnership with long-standing sponsor Bank of America.
