Skyway Elementary School
Mission Statement
The Division of Student / Career Services supports the academic, career, and personal/social development of students in Miami-Dade County Public Schools by assisting school personnel, parents/guardians/caregivers, and the community to empower and encourage learners in the achievement of their maximum potential in a safe and effective learning environment.
About The School:
Skyway Elementary is more than a school. It is a loving, caring, and learning laboratory for lucky children who reach for the stars by reading, believing, achieving, and succeeding at everything.
Skyway Elementary School serves 750 students from the surrounding neighborhood, who reside in single family and mobile homes. Our student body encompasses the many heritages, ethnicity's, and socioeconomic levels found throughout Miami-Dade County.
Skyway Elementary School is located on 7.87 acres in the northern part of Miami-Dade County at 4555 NW 206 Terrace. Our 31 year old building is wired to provide Internet and Network access to 100% of the classrooms. We currently house 150 computers in classrooms, the media center and eight in a lab setting. We also have a closed circuit television system. The school has recently been designated to receive a media center and cafeteria. Construction for this addition is still in the planning stages.
Skyway Elementary is a mandatory uniform school, which provides educational services through the use of the Sunshine State Standards and Competency Based Curriculum to students in grades Pre-Kindergarten through five in an open space classroom setting. Additionally, teachers use the Comprehensive Reading Plan and CRISS Strategies to enhance instruction. Grades 3,4, and 5 are departmentalized, meaning students change classes for Language Arts, Mathematics, Science and Social Studies.
