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!

I am grateful for Mrs. Kujawa because of her willingness to share with others. She is always finding new and exciting ideas for our grade one team. She exhibits caring and love to her students and makes each one feel special. I am grateful for her because she is a great addition to our first grade team. She is always willing to help others and I am amazed by how much she can accomplish as a teacher and mother.

📚A LEGACY OF LEADERSHIP📚
We continue celebrating #BlackHistoryMonth with another trailblazer in Martin County education, Felix A. Williams. His legacy lives on with the naming of Felix A. Williams Elementary School being christened in his honor. #ALLINMartin 👊
President's Day, also known as Washington's Birthday, is on the third Monday of February each year and is a federal holiday in the United States. The day not only honors George Washington (born February 22), the first President of the United States, and Abraham Lincoln (born February 12) whose birthdays are both in February, but honors all the presidents who have served in the United States.
"Let us think of education as the means of developing our greatest abilities, because in each of us there is a private hope and dream which, fulfilled, can be translated into benefit for everyone and greater strength for our nation."-John F. Kennedy
Happy Presidents' Day, Martin County!
