🍎MARTIN MINUTE WITH MILLAY🍎
Superintendent John D. Millay and Ms. Elizabeth Rumie, ESE Secretary, have an important message for families about report cards and FOCUS Parent Portal accounts!
If your child attended school in the Martin County School District last year, they will be bringing home a copy of their final report for the 2020-2021 school year no later than tomorrow afternoon. They will also bring home a copy of instructions for parents/caregivers to access their FOCUS Parent Portal accounts. These accounts allow families to easily keep up with their child's grades, attendance and more!
If you need assistance with claiming your FOCUS Parent Portal account, please call (772) 219-1200 ext. 30610 between the hours of 8 a.m. and 7 p.m. on August 20, 23 and 24. Staff will be available to assist in English and Spanish.

🍎PLANNING FOR HEALTH AND SUCCESS🍎
On Thursday, August 5, the Martin County School Board approved Superintendent John D. Millay's recommendation that the District hire additional nurses to assist with required contract tracing processes in the coming school year. While the Florida Department of Health in Martin County (DOH Martin) has applied for a grant that would fund these positions if approved, Dr. Millay and the School Board believe it is important to begin the school year with these important health professionals in place and assisting our schools.
WPTV's Todd Wilson spoke with Dr. Millay about why these positions are a priority for the District. Read more here: https://www.wptv.com/rebound/state-of-education/martin-county-school-district-hires-more-nurses
