Billionaire Ken Griffin is bringing personalized math instruction to Miami-Dade County public schools as the recent transplant looks to bolster education outcomes in the region.

Griffin and the Bezos Family Foundation — whose chair, Mike Bezos, and board member Jeff Bezos have also relocated to Miami — put up $7 million to fund a three-year pilot by New Jersey-based New Classrooms.
