🍎🎉MARTIN MEANS MORE🎉🍎
Now *this* is how you kick off a school year. 🙌
From DJ Jay Hall keeping the party going 🎶 to fresh haircuts 💈, delicious food 🍔, student swag 🎁, snakes, alligators, and smiles all around, our first-ever Back-to-School Community Celebration was everything we hoped it would be... and more.
The best part? Seeing our schools, families, volunteers, and community partners all come together with one shared goal: helping every student feel connected and start the school year strong.
That's what Martin Means More is all about.
Thank you to everyone who made today such a success. We can't wait to do it again!

🍎LEAVING A LEGACY🍎
Forty years of dedication, service, and behind-the-scenes work that helped keep the Martin County School District running smoothly.
During Tuesday night's School Board meeting, Superintendent Maine, School Board members, and the Educational Technology team were proud to celebrate the impact of Ms. Rose Brock. A proud product of MCSD, Rose began her career with the District in 1986 and spent the next four decades supporting the District through her expertise, attention to detail, and commitment to getting the job done right. Her work helped provide the data, reporting, and information that support important decisions across our organization.
While much of her work happened behind the scenes, her impact was felt throughout the District. Rose's story is a reminder that Martin Means More because of people like her who choose to invest their talents, their careers, and their hearts into serving our students, staff, and community. Congratulations, Rose, on an extraordinary 40-year career, and thank you for the lasting difference you have made in Martin County. We wish you the very best in retirement! 💻👏🎉
