Welcome Class of 2025! We are excited to welcome our incoming 9th graders to South Fork High School Tuesday, August 10th at 8:00am.

Students will follow a shortened bell schedule, visit classrooms, meet teachers, and receive information pertaining to South Fork High School campus life. Orientation will conclude at 12:00pm and students will be directed to carline or the bus loop depending on their method of transportation. A schedule for student ID distribution will be forthcoming. In the meantime, please arrive on time and in our most up to date dress code guidelines, which can be found on our schools' website. For tomorrow ONLY, you will not need to bring your Laptop, yet starting the first day of school (Wednesday), it will be an everyday expectation. See you tomorrow, Class of 2025!

🍎RETURNING WITH RESILIENCE🍎 The Martin County School District has partnered with Tykes & Teens, a leading local provider of mental health services, to ensure students are prepared for success as they return to school campuses. CBS12's Madeline Montgomery spoke with Jensen Beach High School teacher Tony Ferro about what "returning with resilience" means for families: https://cbs12.com/news/local/teachers-take-extra-steps-to-ease-transition-from-quarantine-to-classroom. #ALLINMartin👊

🚨PLANNING FOR SAFETY🚨 The Martin County School District was one of the first school districts in Florida to be in full compliance with Alyssa's Law, which requires schools to have a mobile panic alarm system in place to notify local law enforcement in case of an emergency. WPTV's Stephanie Susskind took an in-depth look at our comprehensive security solution.

🍎PLANNING FOR HEALTH AND SUCCESS🍎 On Thursday, August 5, the Martin County School Board approved Superintendent John D. Millay's recommendation that the District hire additional nurses to assist with required contract tracing processes in the coming school year. While the Florida Department of Health in Martin County (DOH Martin) has applied for a grant that would fund these positions if approved, Dr. Millay and the School Board believe it is important to begin the school year with these important health professionals in place and assisting our schools. WPTV's Todd Wilson spoke with Dr. Millay about why these positions are a priority for the District.

🚨 BACK TO SCHOOL 2021: ENSURING SAFETY🚨 We are extremely grateful for our partnership with the Martin County Sheriff's Office - each of our schools has at least one dedicated School Resource Officer (SRO) on campus to protect the safety of our students and employees. Corporal Drew Porcelli stopped by our administrative center with the newest members of the SRO team today. We're #ALLINMartin👊 and looking forward to a fantastic and safe 2021-2022 school year!
