I had the honor of speaking at today's Celebration of Impact Awards, where Sophia Chen, a graduate of Cutler Bay Senior High, was named @UnitedWayMiami's 2026 Outstanding Youth Award recipient. That's the kind of student our schools produce. Congratulations, Sophia, and thank you to every @MDCPS school and student who showed up for this year's campaign.

Long before most of the School Board Administration Building gets to work, the SBAB cafeteria staff is already at it. Thank you for showing up every day and taking care of this team.

You can’t lead a school district from behind a desk. Today’s visit with the team at Upper Room Ministries of Miami Gardens was a great reminder of how much deeper our impact is when schools and local leaders work side-by-side.

Another engaging town hall tonight at @HGHS_Gladiators! Thank you to the parents, students, and community members who joined the conversation—your input is vital to our district's success. We’re keeping the momentum going next week at @CarolCitySr1 on Tuesday, September 29, at 6:30 p.m. Bring your questions and ideas, and let’s keep working together! #SecureOurFuture

Nothing beats coming back home to @smmcswildcats! Loved visiting with @MDCPS Teacher of the Year, Robert Rabelo, and spending time with the bright young minds in his class. Their energy and curiosity reminded me of my Wildcat pride!

Great visit to @keybiscaynek8! Wonderful spending time with the incredible students and staff. Their energy fuels me!

Great morning at the @CityofMiami Commission meeting sharing @MDCPS’s achievements, upcoming initiatives, and key details on the referendum ballot question alongside Chair @MariTereMDCPS. Thank you to Mayor Eileen Higgins and the Commission for your continued support of our schools!

Three products of @MDCPS, one table, a real conversation. Grant Miller, Tony White, and I talk about the teachers who shaped us, the schools that built us, and why the Secure Our Future Referendum Renewal matters to every family in this county. Watch the interview at: nam10.safelinks.protection.o…

Can't make it to tonight's town hall meeting in person? No problem! Tune in to our live stream starting at 6:30 p.m.: eduvision.tv/l?mmOeLeeI

It was great connecting with leaders from the Village of Key Biscayne, along with School Board Chair Mari Tere Rojas and our Deputy Superintendent, Dr. Michael Lewis, to talk through what our students and school community need most. Conversations like this are how we stay connected to the people we serve.

Tonight, come talk with me about M-DCPS from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. Stop by the Community Resource Fair starting at 5:30 p.m. #SecureOurFuture

Dr. Chione Daniel was one of my Law Enforcement Officers Memorial High School students, back when I was her principal. Today she's a dentist and business owner in our community. That's what education can do. Congratulations, Dr. Daniel, on everything you've built.

Joined the @CityofMiaGarden Council meeting to share updates from @MDCPS and inform the community of the Secure Our Future Referendum Renewal. Getting to celebrate the teachers the City recognized was the best part. Grateful to this community for always supporting education.

After a great conversation at Miami Beach Senior High last night, I'm bringing the town hall series to Hialeah Gardens Senior High School tomorrow at 6:30 p.m. Parents, students, I want to hear from you. #SecureOurFuture

Deeply grateful to @EducationFund and Ms. Linda Lecht for her leadership and advocacy for @MDCPS students and staff. Together, we are able to ensure the best outcomes for our students.

A simple hello can be the difference between a student feeling alone and feeling seen. That's what Sandy Hook Promise's Start With Hello week is all about. As Superintendent, this message is deeply personal to me after bringing this vital program to Ferguson Senior High.

Thank you to our District 3 community and the incredible Hi-Tides family at @miamibeachSHS for hosting us this evening! Our commitment to @MDCPS students drives everything we do. World-class education relies on exceptional talent—from the passion of our teachers in the classroom to the constant vigilance of our school safety teams and support staff who keep our campuses secure and thriving.

I will be at Miami Beach Senior High tonight from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. to hear your perspective and share where we're headed as a District. The Community Resource Fair starts at 5:30 p.m. #SecureOurFuture
