Magnet schools, Public Schools and Private Schools in Miami – What is the Difference?
For many parents, choosing between the local public school, a charter school, or a private school can be a challenge by itself. Please see the link below to read about the differences in these three types of schools.
Magnet Schools
Parents in Miami can opt for Magnet schools/programs, which are free public elementary and secondary schools of choice that are operated by school districts or a consortium of districts. Magnet schools have a focused theme and aligned curricula in science, technology, engineering and so on and are typically more “hands on – minds on” and use an approach to learning that is inquiry or performance/project based. They use state, district, or common core standards in all subject areas; however, they are taught within the overall theme of the school. Read more about Magnet Schools/programs and their benefits.
