The voter-approved half-mill property tax has funded an extra School Resource Officer (SRO) at each MCSD-operated high school for the last four years. The Martin County School Board wants to know if you think this should be continued if the half-mill is renewed by voters on August 23, 2022.

One of our very own 3rd grade students, Liam, has started a movement here at BCE! He planned and organized a fundraiser to support the families of Elev8hope.

Liam and his mom will be assembling family fun baskets for students to enjoy over the summer break. We are so proud of Liam for organizing this and supporting other students!

🍎INSTRUCTIONAL UPDATE FOR FAMILIES🍎 In March, Governor Ron DeSantis signed Senate Bill 1048 into law, effectively eliminating Florida Standards Assessments (FSAs) and replacing them with progress monitoring. This school year will be the last year that students take FSAs - next year, Florida will fully implement progress monitoring-based school accountability. Our Division of Instructional Services has created a video explaining what parents need to know about this new legislation and the status of assessments: https://youtu.be/hjIM1Xcns6c. Many of our students will participate in FSAs this week. We ask families to continue prioritizing attendance and punctuality while also encouraging their children to take pride in demonstrating what they have learned this year. Families are encouraged to reach out to their child's school with any questions. #ALLINMartin👊 #PublicSchoolProud
