🌿 Kindergarten Explorers at Work! 🌿 Our kindergarteners are diving into the world of living things and discovering the beauty of nature all around them! 🐞🌼 We’re so grateful for our outdoor campus, full of native plants and natural wonders. This week, students went on an exciting plant scavenger hunt and documented their discoveries in their super science notebooks! 📝🔍 Learning has never been more fun or more green! 💚 #BCEGators #LearningInAction #UnstoppableTogether

⭐CELEBRATING GOOD CHARACTER⭐

It's Character Counts! Week, and in the Martin County School District, we are proud to recognize the importance of good character in shaping future leaders and building strong, respectful communities.

Grounded in the six pillars of Character—trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, and citizenship—our students are learning that excellence isn’t just about achievement, but about integrity and heart. 💙
