There are three types of partnerships that can be formed between
your organization and Miami-Dade County Public Schools:
- Adopt-A-School
- The organization “adopts” one school or a
group of schools and plans activities that would benefit
both entities.
- General
Resources - The organization provides resources
to the school system as a whole.
- Special
Events or Departments - The organization provides
resources or expertise in a specific area for a special
project or particular department within the school system.
Step 2: Call 305-995-1215 for identification of a
school site and their Dade Partners Liaison.
Step 3: Schedule a meeting with the school’s
Dade Partners Liaison to discuss the partnership ideas.
Step 4: Complete a Dade Partners proposal with the school's
liaison that officially registers you as a Dade Partner.
Step 5: Choose an individual in your organization to coordinate
the partnership activities.
