School Choice Starts Here: A Tuition-Free, Personalized Education Pathway for Grades 6–12

Families today have more school choice than ever — and that choice matters. When a traditional school environment isn’t the right fit, parents deserve flexible, high-quality options that put students first.

School choice gives families the freedom to select an educational pathway that best fits their child’s academic, social, and personal needs.

If your child is not thriving in a traditional setting, American High School Academy (AHSA) offers a tuition-free alternative education pathway for eligible students in grades 6–12, combining parental choice, personalized education, and STEM-focused learning — all while earning an official Miami-Dade County Public Schools (M-DCPS) high school diploma through AHSA as a contracted M-DCPS school.

Understanding the benefits of school choice can help families make informed decisions about their child’s education.

Every student learns differently. That’s why parental choice is essential to student success.

School choice plays a crucial role in ensuring that every student receives the education that best fits their needs.
