🌀EYE ON THE STORM🌀
** Update 7:15 p.m. Tuesday, October 8: Following this evening's briefing with Martin County Emergency Management officials, the decision has been made to open four schools as shelters beginning at noon tomorrow, October 9, with the exception of the special needs shelter, which opens at 7 a.m. The shelters will remain open until Hurricane Milton has moved away from our area, at which time staff will begin restoring campuses to pre-storm conditions.
As this will take us into Friday, all MCSD-operated schools will remain closed through the end of the current week. We plan to resume classes and normal operations on Monday, October 14.
The following schools will be used as shelters:
-Dr. David L. Anderson Middle School--opens at 7 a.m., Oct. 9 (special needs population - residents should register here: https://www.martin.fl.us/SpecialNeeds). This shelter includes limited medical oversight and is designed for residents with electricity-dependent needs such as oxygen.

Mrs. Henderson's and Mrs. Thibodeau's Jensen Beach VPK Mini-Vikings had a blast during our fire department visit today. We learned a lot of great safety tips, what a firefighter looks like when he is dressed to go into a fire, all about the fire truck and tools on the fire truck, as well as having the opportunity to take turns spraying the fire hose! Each child also received a fire hat to take home from the fire department. A huge shout out to Fire Station 16 on Savannah Rd., and to Mrs. Henderson for making all the arrangements. The children learned a lot and will know what to do in an emergency!
We are Family! The students in Mrs. McIntyre's class practiced making fact families by finding their match. Our amazing volunteer Ms. Richardson played as well!
Miss Hardie's class rocked their school last Friday and showed off their alphabet knowledge!!
The students in Mrs.McIntyre's first grade demonstrated their understanding of a double facts by finding the double match and the sum. Way to go!
After learning about the parts of a plant and what a plant needs, the students in Mrs. McIntyre's First class planted tomatoes! Watch out those grape tomatoes can squirt!!!
Mrs. McIntyre's and Mr. Falsey's Fabulous First Grade students rocked learning in the Math "Pizza Poolza"! Together the students matched fact families, created addition pizzas, domino pizza addition facts, and guest checks with fact families. It was great fun!
