📺TUNE IN TONIGHT📺
The Martin County School District’s partnership to “grow our own” teachers is growing strong and Stephanie Susskind WPTV will share the scoop tonight!
Over the summer, the Martin School School Board unanimously voted to approve a partnership with BloomBoard, allowing selected current paraprofessionals to earn their bachelor’s degrees from Lake Erie College in either elementary or exceptional student education while continuing their work as a para.
Tune into WPTV at 5 p.m. to learn more about this unique and incredible program, and hear from one Indiantown Middle School para who is currently going through the course!

🍁THANKSGIVING BREAK UPDATE🍁
The Martin County School District would like to formally announce students and teachers will have Nov. 20-24 off for Thanksgiving Break.
As noted in the Instructional Calendar, Nov. 20 and 21 were designated as emergency makeup days to ensure our students would receive the instruction in the event the District had to close schools due to storms or other unforeseen emergencies.
The District has had no such situation creating a need to make up instructional time; therefore, those two days are included in Thanksgiving Break for students and teachers.
The Martin County School Board approved the 2023-2024 School Calendar during its meeting on Nov. 22, 2022. To view the calendar, click here: https://www.martinschools.org/page/calendars

📆HURRICANE MAKEUP DAYS📆
Reminder for families: Hurricane season doesn't officially end until Nov. 30. As we near the end of the season, we want to remind Martin County families of the scheduled Emergency Makeup Days built into the 2023-2024 School Calendar.
We are also nearing the first set up Emergency Makeup Days on our Instructional Calendar, which precedes Thanksgiving Break (Nov. 20-21). These days may be used to make up instructional time in the event we need to close for one or more storms.
IF we do NOT experience any emergency situations or storms requiring us to use one or more of these Emergency Makeup Days, those two days will be added to Thanksgiving Break, giving students the week away from school (Nov. 20-24). At this time, that appears to be the case.
If we experience conditions that would necessitate making up one or more school days, we will provide notice of the appropriate date(s) to families and employees as soon as possible.
