Being at South Dade has prepared me with the education I need for every test I have to take. The teachers are very cooperative and are willing to help the students with any problem they have and they are very understanding. I'd like to see the school really focus on the next step which is college for some and for others showing them what they will being seeing once they get out of high school and have to make their decisions for them selfs.
