RICHMOND PERRINE OPTIMIST is a Title I public high school that is part of the MIAMI-DADE school district, located in MIAMI, FL with about 52 students offering grade levels from 6th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education.

The Richmond-Perrine Optimist Club is an outreach program operated in partnership with Miami-Dade County Public Schools, specifically designed to serve the community of South Miami-Dade. Rather than functioning as a traditional K-12 academic institution, the facility serves as a vital community hub that provides supplementary educational, recreational, and social services. Its primary mission is to foster positive youth development by offering a safe, structured environment where local students can participate in after-school programs, sports, and mentorship initiatives that support their academic and personal growth.

The program operates under the umbrella of the district’s outreach initiatives, reflecting a commitment to bridging the gap between classroom learning and community involvement. By collaborating with local organizations and the Miami-Dade school system, the Richmond-Perrine site aims to provide resources that improve student engagement and character building. It acts as an essential support system for families in the 33157 area, ensuring that children have access to constructive extracurricular opportunities that promote physical health, social responsibility, and long-term success.
