๐ŸšจNOTICE ABOUT DISTRICT PHONES๐Ÿšจ

Some callers are experiencing intermittent issues when trying to reach District offices and school sites. At this time, the issue is affecting some incoming calls only, and outgoing calls remain operational.

While our Education Technology team works with the phone carriers to resolve this issue, families and community members can use the staff directory at martinschools.org to contact the appropriate employee or department via email or submit an inquiry through OnFlo.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work to restore normal service. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธCELEBRATING CONSTITUTION WEEK๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

Constitution Week officially begins on September 17, but Martin County School District students are already getting a head start!

Further highlighting the importance of this annual observance, the Martin County School Board approved the 2026 Constitution Week Proclamation at Tuesday night's meeting, developed with Ms. Rae Scimeca and the Halpatiokee Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution.

As we recognize the 239th anniversary of the signing of the U.S. Constitution, students across the District will spend the week learning about the document that continues to shape our nation and protect our freedoms.

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:
โœ”๏ธ Worn with both shoulder straps
โœ”๏ธ Adjusted to fit snugly against the back
โœ”๏ธ Packed with only what is needed for the day
โœ”๏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! ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’š

๐ŸŒŠโ›ต HOW TO SAIL SUNDAY! ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’š Our final letter for "SAIL" is L - LEARN & LEAD BY EXAMPLE! At school, we encourage our Sailfish to stay curious, keep learning, persevere through challenges, and be positive leaders. At home, one of the best ways to encourage these qualities is simply to model them! Let your child see you learning, trying, growing, and leading with kindness. ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’š Working together, staff at our school and parents at home can set strong examples of what SAILing looks like. We can inspire our Sailfish to SAIL strong! โ›ต๏ธ๐ŸŒŠ
