Members of Miami-Dade’s teachers union decided Monday to sign onto the district’s efforts to compete for up to $32 million in federal money.
The support came just in time and amid contract negotiations.
The district needed the United Teachers of Dade to endorse its application for another round of the Obama Administration’s education competition, Race to the Top.
