🍎SHOWING APPRECIATION🍎
We are continuing our #ThankATeacher shoutouts this afternoon, starting off with spotlighting Ms. Christine Henderson from Jensen Beach Elementary School!
"She has been so kind to Walker during stress and troubles at home," grateful parent Heather Luzier shared. "She was so patient during some of his learning challenges and willing to work with him rather than separate. She took the time that was needed to help him, and it helped him flourish for the remainder of the year."
Thank you, Ms. Henderson, for going above and beyond for your students!

🍎LEAVING A LEGACY🍎
On Tuesday evening, Superintendent Michael Maine and the Martin County School Board celebrated the career of Jensen Beach Elementary School's Heather Lafary.
Ms. Lafary has educated Martin County School District students for 35 incredible years, starting as a teenager at Hobe Sound Elementary School as an Extended Day Counselor! Ms. Lafary is known for her caring nature and positive attitude. She can also remember every child's name and their family member!
Ms. Lafary has most recently been the Computer Lab Assistant at JBE, and Principal Radcliff says her good vibes and kindness will sorely be missed.
Thank you for being so dedicated to MCSD over the years. We hope your retirement is filled with lots of adventure, Ms. Lafary!
