Campus Transformation
From $11.2M to $35M — We Changed What Was Possible
When the Miami-Dade County School Board initially allocated $11.2M for campus renovations in 2012, Gables sat in disrepair for years. FOGH advocacy changed that — pushing the budget to $35M and holding the district accountable until work began.
