Updates for Fall 2020
Dear Spartan Families,
As the school year quickly approaches, and the COVID-19 situation continues to evolve throughout the state of Florida and right here in Miami, we wanted to share the MCDS plan to approach our return to school this fall.
The MCDS Return to Campus Task Force has been proactively planning for three learning scenarios that inform our academic approach to the fall semester while ensuring the health and safety of our community. Please read the information below.

These times bring immense challenges, and those challenges are unique for each student, family, faculty member, school, community, and region. There is no ‘one size fits all’ strategy that works for every scenario in every location. Learning will be different. Campus will be different. There will be disruption. MCDS may need to close unexpectedly depending on local conditions and ordinances. No one knows with certainty what the fall will bring in terms of this pandemic.
