What is My School Online?
My School Online (MSO) is Miami-Dade County Public
Schools’ (MDCPS) distance learning option for those
students in grades K-12 who wish to continue their
education full-time through innovative learning
environments but still maintain their enrollment status at
their brick and mortar schools. MSO students will have
their attendance taken as they participate in
classes online during regular school hours and follow a
standard school schedule. Teachers in MSO meet daily
with their students utilizing web conferencing technology
embedded within the platform. MSO also affords students
the opportunity for whole-group and small-
group instruction, personalized learning, and support
services, such as guidance and mental health counseling,
interventions, and therapies as needed.

RECIPE FOR SUCCESS
Have a GROWTH MINDSET.
Set high expectations, don’t give up, and do
your best.
Create a “Check Off List” of things to do by prioritizing them by due
dates.
Projects should be planned out by dividing
it into mini tasks to meet deadlines.
Reading daily increases comprehension,
knowledge, and speed. The More Your Read, The More You Know.
Finish your assignments daily. Don’t leave for
tomorrow what can be done today.
