⚾️FIELD OF DREAMS⚾️ If you build it...they will come. During Tuesday night’s meeting, the School Board received an exciting update on the progress made to the Martin County High School and Hidden Oaks Middle School ballfields—thanks to the partnership between the Martin County School District and the McNicholas Family Foundation , Florida Baseball Club, and dedicated community supporters like Star Farms, The Ranch, and Perfect Pitch. These fields have undergone a remarkable transformation—now state-of-the-art spaces that will serve students, athletes, and families for years to come. We’re grateful to everyone who went in #ALLINMartin👊 for this project. It’s partnerships like these that help us build brighter futures for our students and community. #PublicSchoolPROUD #IgniteTogetherMCSD🔥

🎓TIMELESS TRADITION: EAGLE EDITION🎓 Once an Eagle, always an Eagle! 🦅 Seniors returned to where it all began, walking the halls of Hobe Sound Elementary School with big smiles, bigger hugs, and a few happy tears. Some even stayed to chat with 5th graders, sharing words of encouragement. The little ones saw their future. The big kids remembered their roots. Teachers saw the impact they made. 💙🦅 #ALLINMartin👊 #PublicSchoolProud #classof2025
