📆MAKEUP DAY INFORMATION📆
Martin County School District students will NOT be required to make up the days missed due to the recent hurricanes.
Fortunately, after a thorough review of the District’s instructional calendar, students will still meet state requirements and complete the academic year without the need to use make-up days at this time.
We are committed to supporting the community with ongoing recovery efforts, including through the Education Foundation of Martin County’s relief fund for employees and families, providing free meals for students, and offering credit for last week’s Extended Day services.

We are humbled by the resilience and cooperation of our incredible community. Thank you for partnering with us in your child's education. We are #MCSDBetterTogether and #MartinStrong! 💙

🌀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.

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.

🌀EYE ON THE STORM🌀
**Update 2:15 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 26: Schools and offices in the Martin County School District will reopen and return to normal operations on Friday, Sept. 27.
The District continues to carefully monitor local weather conditions alongside our partners at the Martin County Emergency Management Agency. We appreciate the patience and understanding of our families and employees as we navigated the uncertain weather conditions caused by Hurricane Helene. While we were forecasted to experience frequent high wind speeds, our District was fortunately spared from receiving severe damage. Our thoughts and prayers are with our fellow Floridians as Hurricane Helene continues to strengthen into an extremely powerful storm and head towards the West Coast.
It is important for our students to return to class as attendance is essential for their success. We look forward to welcoming everyone back and providing the best education.

🚨Update - 12:15 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 25: The Martin County School District will close all MCSD-operated schools and District offices on Thursday, September 26, 2024, due to Hurricane Helene.
The decision is based on the latest information from the National Weather Service and local emergency management officials. Wind speeds throughout the morning are projected to exceed limits for school bus operation, making it unsafe for transportation.
MCSD continues to work closely with local emergency management officials to track the storm and will provide further information regarding District operations beyond Thursday as it becomes available.
Families are urged to monitor the District's website at www.martinschools.org, social media channels, and the District's automated messaging system for updates. Families and employees wishing to receive text message notifications should text START to 98900.

🍎LEAVING A LEGACY🍎
Superintendent Michael Maine and the Martin County School Board were honored to celebrate the career of Rosalyn Panet during the board meeting this evening.
Ms. Panet started her journey with the Martin County School District 32 years ago when she took an Adult Education computer class at the Indiantown campus. The very next year, she was hired as an ELL paraprofessional.
Ms. Panet has been an integral part of the Indiantown and Stuart communities, making a lasting impact on the lives of students and families. Her legacy is defined by a deep love for her work and spreading the joy of education to everyone she meets.
We are grateful for her dedication and wish her the very best in retirement.

🚌 BUS TRACKING APP 🚌
Attention MCSD families! Bus tracking codes for the new MyReaXiumApp continue to be sent this afternoon. If you have been waiting on a code for your family, please be on the lookout for an email from do-not-reply@reaxium.com with the subject line, "You have been invited to the MyReaXiumApp!" and be sure to check your spam/junk folders if you are unable to locate it.
If your child is a new bus rider this year, your MyReaXiumApp will begin to display real-time GPS information for your child once they have swiped their ID card onto the bus for the first time.
