History
Turner Tech was founded in 1993 and was named after William H. Turner, former chairperson of the Miami-Dade County School Board and was a former member of the Florida State Legislature. Turner, along with Roger C. Cuevas (a former Miami-Dade County Public Schools Superintendent), had a dream to construct a school that would provide academic and technical skills to prepare youth for the 21st century. Turner Tech operates as a small high school with approximately 1,800 students.
