Fair use rationale for Image:Seal fullcolor big.jpg
Image:Seal fullcolor big.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Misc comments
It seems like schools/education is a major omission from this, if anyone is looking to do some more research. Are K12 and community colleges at the city level or county level here? How is the funding apportioned and how does that relate to how the boundaries have been drawn? Cliff bar (talk) 16:15, 28 October 2019 (UTC)


 * This article is about the government of Miami-Dade County. That government has nothing to do with education in the county. As is indicated in Miami-Dade County, Florida, all public schools (K-12) in the county are operated by the Miami-Dade school district, which has its own elected board, and is independent of county government. Miami Dade College is a public college serving Miami-Dade County. It is independent of the county government and the school district. Florida International University is a state university. All other colleges and universities in the county are private. Again, as the government of Miami-Dade County has no control over any education in the county, there is no reason to cover education in this article. - Donald Albury 18:58, 28 October 2019 (UTC)
