St. Patrick Catholic School (Miami Beach, Florida)

In 1926, Monsignor William Barry and five Adrian Dominican Sisters remodeled five polo stables that Carl G. Fisher had donated to the parish into five classrooms and a cafeteria.

A $75,000 building permit was issued on May 31, 1930, for St. Patrick Catholic Elementary and High School—the first of three units of the two-story school building, completed in 1932, opened in September.

Accreditation in the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools became a reality in 1933, along with the acceptance by Florida.

The school continues to provide education from Kindergarten to 8th grade.

In 1988, it was named a "National School of Excellence" by the United States Department of Education.
