9/25 = 9-2-5! ๐๐ฆ
The Martin County School Board has officially proclaimed September 25, 2026, as Dolly Parton Day throughout the Martin County School District! ๐๐
The day celebrates Dolly Partonโs remarkable contributions to children and literacy, along with the impact of programs like Dolly Partonโs Imagination Library in helping young readers build a lifelong love of books.
Weโre proud to celebrate alongside the Childrenโs Services Council of Martin County and The Library Foundation of Martin County as we encourage our school community to read, dream and grow together.
Hereโs how to join us on Dolly Parton Day, a.k.a. 9/2-5:
๐Read for at least 30 minutes on September 25.
๐Get a library card and make your next great read easier to find.
๐Have a child age 5 or under? Sign up for Dolly Partonโs Imagination Library to receive free books at home.
And, of course, dress the part! Think pink, rhinestones, boots and big hair. Or, dress in your favorite college team to represent the coat of many colors! ๐ขโจ๐

Today is National School Backpack Awareness Day, a reminder that a properly fitted and packed backpack can make a big difference in a child's comfort, health, and readiness to learn.
As our Sailfish head to class each day, take a moment to check that backpacks are:
โ๏ธ Worn with both shoulder straps
โ๏ธ Adjusted to fit snugly against the back
โ๏ธ Packed with only what is needed for the day
โ๏ธ Free of unnecessary weight that can strain growing bodies
A backpack is more than a school supply. It's a daily tool that helps students stay organized, responsible, and prepared for success. By building healthy backpack habits now, we're helping our children learn and grow with confidence all year long.
Thank you, Sailfish families, for partnering with us to keep our students safe, healthy, and ready to learn every day! ๐๐

Our 5th graders are taking on a big challenge this monthโbalancing a family budget! They're earning salaries, paying bills, buying groceries, and balancing their checkbooks.
The big question: Will they have money left at the end of the month for fun activities and a few luxuries? ๐
It's hands-on learning at its best as our students discover the importance of financial literacy and smart money management!
