🍎CELEBRATING SCHOOL SOCIAL WORKERS🍎
The Martin County School District is proud to celebrate our school social service workers in honor of National School Social Work Week!
Our School Social Service Workers are essential members of Team MCSD - they assist children, families, faculty and staff in creating a healthy and positive learning environment for all. They work tirelessly to identify and provide services to students (and their families) who face serious barriers to success, including poverty, disabilities, abuse, addiction and the loss of loved ones. We appreciate their professionalism, compassion and commitment to our students, families and schools!

🍽CELEBRATING HEALTHY CHOICES🍽
Busy weekday mornings make it a challenge for many families to find time for a healthy breakfast. Fortunately, the Martin County School District offers nutritious school breakfasts, complete with fruit and low-fat or fat-free milk, to ensure students are fueled for learning every school day! 🥛🍎🍌🥞🥯
This year, the U.S. Department of Agriculture is allowing all children to receive school breakfast and lunch for free, without an application, so it’s a great time for families to give school breakfast a try.
The District's Food & Nutrition Services professionals and students will be encouraged to show their enthusiasm for school breakfast from March 7-11 as the district celebrates #NSBW22 with special menus, activities, and more!

The #FAWEFamily Smile Station is up and beginning to be used by FAWE Staff. This one-stop-spot has everything needed to write an epic little note of kindness, gratitude, support, or encouragement both from staff-to-staff and from staff-to-students. This station has it all - fun pens, positive sticky notes, inspirational note cards, colorful envelopes, cute tape, sweet and silly stickers, and more!
Thank you so much Holdy Realty, Rea Gannascoli, and Kelly Swigler for being the first to generously support this initiative. If any other FAWE family or local business would like to help us spread positivity throughout our campus, you can support with a donation big or small by clicking https://www.educationfoundationmc.org/education-funding/project-detail/pid/285/id/2246#.Yh05LWlOk0E
Even small donations combined can help keep this Smile Station stocked and ready to be used for the rest of the year 🥳🥳🥳

FAWE Staff Shout- Outs from Staff Members= Empowerment Through Community #FAWEPROUD💙💚
Mrs. Gagliardo has been my rock. I flood her with questions, and she is always able to answer, or find the answer, no matter how big or small the question. She is always stepping in where there is a need to be filled! She always has the staff and student's best interest at heart. When I go to her office I feel at home and welcomed. She has a personality that is loving and caring. I can come to her and tell her anything or she will help me with anything. Even if she is a Mets fans! She jumped in and helped with our music performance and the rehearsals! She did an amazing job and offered to help in the future! I am so excited to work together with her!
