Today, school and District leaders hit the ground runningโliterally! From solving clues to racing (safely) around Martin County, teams explored the local landmarks and hidden gems that make our A-rated District shine. Take a look at the photos and see if you recognize some of the pitstops! โ๏ธโจ
๐ฅ1st Place: Dark Red
๐ฅ2nd Place: Dark Pink
๐ฅ3rd Place: Green
But this race wasnโt just about bragging rights (although some might say so ๐)โit was about building stronger connections across campuses and departments, all in pursuit of one goal: sustaining our A and climbing toward #1. ๐ช
Huge thanks to the Environmental Studies Center for hosting our starting and finishing lines, and to the incredible local sites that let our leaders learn more about the place we proudly serve.
Also, huge shoutout to our Professional Learning Department for such a great way to kick off our Leadership Days, and to the crews who helped get it all set up!
