Grover Holmes Braddock (July 23, 1925 – July 24, 2025) was an American politician who served on the Miami-Dade County Public School Board from 1962 until 2000. As the school board's chairman in 1969 and 1970, he was instrumental in the desegregation of the county school system, particularly through his advocacy for busing.
