Miami-Dade County Public Schools (M-DCPS) South Region won the Miami Loves Teachers (MLT) “Clash of the Regions” competition. The achievement was celebrated recently at the Perla T. Hantman School Board Administration Building.
The South Region had the greatest number of teachers who registered on the MLT website to receive the numerous benefits the non-profit offers to educators.
“I’m extremely proud of the work of the teachers and leaders in the South Region,” said South Region superintendent Rafael A. Villalobos. “I’m very happy and excited to have won the trophy and be the representative for Miami-Dade County Public Schools because we are your best choice.”
Region and district representatives, as well as representatives from Miami Loves Teachers, The Education Fund, 2026 Miami Orange Bowl Host Committee, and College Football Playoff Foundation, all attended the event.
Besides the trophy, the first 200 teachers who signed up were to receive complimentary tickets to the Orange Bowl Classic 2026, a College Football Playoff Quarterfinal happening on New Year’s Day. There also will be other opportunities for teachers to receive complimentary tickets to upcoming games.
“Clash of the Regions” is a spirited competition and community initiative that offers teachers resources, event tickets, and professional development, where different school regions compete for sign-ups and engagement. Teachers can join and access benefits by registering at MiamiLovesTeachers.org.
Miami Loves Teachers is a teacher recognition and retention initiative led by The Education Fund, in partnership with Miami-Dade County Public Schools, College Football Playoff Foundation, and 2026 Miami Orange Bowl Host Committee.
The program provides incentives, resources, and community engagement opportunities to celebrate and support educators across Miami-Dade, like the weekly $1,000 DonorsChoose grants awarded to public school teachers in conjunction with a check for the principal of the school where the teacher works.
