Tamarac Commissioner Morey Wright has donated $10,000 to Millennium 6–12 Collegiate Academy in recognition of its recent distinction as the No. 1 public high school in Broward County, according to U.S. News & World Report.

Commissioner Wright directed a portion toward education, calling it an investment in Tamarac’s future. “I want to praise the students, faculty, and staff at Millennium for their dedication and hard work,” said Commissioner Wright. “This recognition is a testament to their efforts and the support of Broward County Public Schools. It’s imperative that we continue to invest in public education. I encourage other community leaders to also invest in opportunities that uplift our youth.” Millennium 6–12 Collegiate Academy has earned acclaim for its rigorous academics, committed educators, and culture of achievement. Its top ranking highlights the school’s mission to prepare students for college, careers, and lifelong success. The $10,000 contribution reflects Commissioner Wright’s commitment to supporting Tamarac youth through education and fostering future leaders. The City of Tamarac remains dedicated to partnerships that expand educational opportunities for all residents.

Millennium’s ranking is part of a broader success story for BCPS. Fifteen of its high schools placed among the top 27% nationally in the 2025–26 U.S. News showcase. Pompano Beach High School was ranked No. 21 in Florida and No. 200 nationwide, while William T. McFatter Technical High, Cypress Bay High, and Atlantic Technical High also rounded out the district’s top five.

“Broward’s high schools continue to shine among the nation’s best,” said BCPS Superintendent Dr. Howard Hepburn. “These rankings reflect the hard work of our students; the dedication of our teachers, administrators and staff; and the support from our families and the community. They also highlight the world-class education our students receive to prepare them for success in college and careers.”
