⛈HSE WEATHER ALERT⛈ We've experienced extreme inclement weather in the area near campus today, including a suspected tornado. It's important for our families to know that students and staff participating in summer programs are completely safe. Right now, out of an abundance of caution, parents/visitors are not permitted to enter campus. Once given the all clear to bring buses onto campus, we will transport all students who are on campus to Port Salerno Elementary School for pickup. We ask families to remain patient and stay tuned for more info. Students and remain safe and families will be contacted once buses are leaving our campus for Port Salerno Elementary School. Thank you for your understanding and continued support of our school! #ALLINMartin👊

COMING SOON TO BULLDOG NATION 🚧🐾 Demolition of the original South Fork High School gymnasium is underway, a cornerstone of the campus since 1983. As we bid farewell, we look ahead to the future-- the new state-of-the-art sports facility is nearing completion! Thanks to the Martin County taxpayers for generously voting to approve a half-cent sales tax increase in November 2018, the Martin County School District was able to fund this new gym and other capital projects throughout the District. We look forward to unveiling a surprise in the new facility incorporating a piece of history. Stay tuned Bulldog Nation!
