SCHOOL FOR ADVANCED STUDIES

SCHOOL FOR ADVANCED STUDIES is a Title I public high school that is part of the MIAMI-DADE school district, located in DORAL, FL with about 115 students offering grade levels from 11th 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. With about 3 teachers, SCHOOL FOR ADVANCED STUDIES has a student/teacher ratio of about 38:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

The **SCHOOL FOR ADVANCED STUDIES (SAS)** is a highly selective, dual-enrollment collegiate high school located in Doral, Florida, and part of the Miami-Dade County Public Schools system. Designed for high-achieving juniors and seniors, the program allows students to complete their final two years of high school while simultaneously earning an Associate of Arts degree from Miami Dade College. By immersing students in a university environment, SAS provides a rigorous academic experience that bridges the gap between secondary education and higher learning at no cost to the students or their families.

The school is widely recognized for its academic excellence and high college-readiness standards. Because the curriculum consists entirely of college-level courses taught by college professors, SAS students are expected to manage the responsibilities of independent study, time management, and critical thinking. The program is ideal for motivated students who are seeking a challenging academic atmosphere, smaller class sizes, and a head start on their university education, often resulting in graduates who are exceptionally well-prepared for competitive four-year universities across the country.
