01What it does

What Downtown Doral Charter Schools Foundation Inc does

Mission

The downtown doral charter schools foundation, inc. Provides support for two charter schools located in doral florida, namely downtown doral charter elementary school, inc. And downtown doral charter upper school, inc. Both schools are 501(c)3 tax exempt organizations.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Program

  1. The foundation provides support for downtown doral charter elementary school, inc. And downtown doral charter upper school, inc (the "schools"). The schools are a public private partnership between the schools and miami-dade county public school board. The schools have three language tracks, spanish, portuguese and french. Within each track, there are two programs, the bilingual education advancement program (beap) and the bilingual education studies program (besp). Beap serves students who are matriculating from elementary and are already proficient in the languages of spanish, portuguese or french. New students who are able to demonstrate through a screening test that they are proficient in the language track they are applying for will be able to enroll in this program as well. Beap offers more advanced spanish, portuguese and french courses, including humanities courses in the foreign language in elementary and ap courses in upper school. Besp serves students who are new to the school and do not have knowledge of the foreign language. Students enrolled in this program are exposed to two foreign language courses per year, but the courses are not as advanced as the other program.…

Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

From the IRS filings of DOWNTOWN DORAL CHARTER SCHOOLS FOUNDATION INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation.

FL

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $275k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
