Miami-Dade County Public Schools is the fourth largest school system in the United States with over 392 schools, 345,000 students and over 40,000 employees.[citation needed]
There are 50 kindergarten-to-8th grade centers (or "academies") serving MDCPS. K–8 centers are generally set up to serve communities with limited building space for two separate campuses. They are run as both an elementary and middle school out of the same campus, with joint administration, staff, and schedules. Middle school-aged students generally have separate buildings dedicated to them. MDCPS provides a full list of the K-8 schools.[4]
There are 120 magnet schools serving MDCPS.[6] They normally serve grades 9th to 12th. These schools do not take in students from their area. Instead, students must apply and test into these schools, which offer specific courses of study.

There are 23 adult/vocational centers, more commonly referred to as "night schools", serving MDCPS.[9] These centers are set up for adults to earn G.E.D.s, or for students older than the age of 16 to make up classes they have failed and have no slots for in their daytime schedules. Some night schools also offer vocational programs and free English classes for non-native speakers. Adult centers also offer free citizenship classes. They also offer Saturday classes to accommodate students who can't attend during the week. They are generally housed at high school campuses, with classes taking place in the evenings.

Alternative schools edit
There are 16 alternative schools serving MDCPS.[11] They are set up for as a last resort for students who have recurring behavioral or extreme academic problems. Any child released from a youth detention center must attend an alternative school until deemed ready to return to normal school.
There are five specialized centers serving MDCPS.[12] They are for students with extreme mental or learning disabilities which would impair them from attending classes with students without these disabilities. It is becoming more and more common for regular schools to set up their own specialized education (special ed) programs.
