🇺🇲SAFE DELIVERY🇺🇲
Martin County Fire Rescue is all about rescuing people when they need help, and we appreciate them for their hard work.
Unfortunately, for some of the eggs, no amount of firefighters could save them from their fate. That was up to Martin County School District students to create egg protection devices during the annual Egg Drop Competition!
Of the 154 students who participated in this year's Egg Drop challenge, 52 eggs survived in their homemade protection devices.
We are very proud of all our students, and we appreciate the assistance from the firefighters!

📚CELEBRATING OUR HISTORY📚
As our celebration of #BlackHistoryMonth continues, we spotlight two brothers who were educational pioneers in Martin County, Charles E. and Robert G. Murray.
Charles Murray founded the Stuart Training School in 1926 - this was the county's first high school for Black students. He remained principal until 1939 when his brother, Robert, took over.
Stuart Training School eventually became Spectrum Academy and Murray Middle School was named after the brothers.

🐹FAVORITE CLASS PET🐹
At Hobe Sound Elementary School, students celebrated literacy week ALL MONTH LONG by diving deep into a beloved classic, "The World According to Humphrey" by Betty G. Birney.
Last night, families joined in on the fun for an evening all about Humphrey!
Humphrey says, “you can learn a lot about life by observing another species.” The students had fun listening to the story, writing about the story, and interacting with the pet stuffed hamster provided to each classroom. Humphrey made lots of friends, had lots of adventures and added joy to Room 26 in the book and each of the classrooms at Hobe Sound!
Students at Hobe Sound fell in love with Humphrey and with 12 books in the series, they have a lot more reading to do. Up next, "Friendship According to Humphrey!"
