📣SHARE YOUR FEEDBACK📣
The Martin County School District seeking your feedback about a potential year-round school pilot program.
What is year-round school? Year-round school does NOT mean students will be in the classroom for more days. Instead, the mandated 180 days of instruction are spread throughout the year, changing the duration and timeframes of breaks.
In May, Governor Ron DeSantis signed HB 891 into law, establishing a four-year pilot program for year-round schooling. To contemplate joining the program (which starts in the 2024-2025 school year), the District was required to apply by the Florida Department of Education.
The District has initially identified Warfield Elementary, Pinewood Elementary, Port Salerno Elementary, and Indiantown Middle as potential schools to participate in the pilot program.
Join the conversation! Share your insights or questions by heading to this link or participating during public comment at the Board Workshop on January 9, 2024: https://bit.ly/3S5PGqv

🐾⚽️ A WIN FOR THE ANIMALS⚽️🐾
Last night was no ordinary soccer game between South Fork High School and Martin County High School's girls' varsity teams.
Student-athletes came up with the idea to waive the entrance fee for all spectators who brought an animal toy or food. It was a huge success! All the toys and food will be donated to the Humane Society of the Treasure Coast!
The game ended in a scoreless tie, but the players and community came out with an extraordinary win! Both teams posed for this celebratory picture after the game. ⚽️🐾🐅
Way to go, Bulldogs and Tigers! We are #MCSDBetterTogether!

🏀AVID AT AMWAY🏀
AVID students from Martin County High School and Jensen Beach High School recently experienced the magic of AVID at the "AVID at the Amway" event in Orlando, Florida!
Students met AVID Alumni, participated in a college fair and heard from a panel of Orlando Magic employees about their paths to success in both college and career. Gavin Farrell, a 9th-grade AVID student at MCHS, was chosen to participate in a basketball challenge during the event!
Students were given tickets to the Orlando Magic basketball game that evening! That's a slam dunk AVID experience! 🏀✨
