☀️EXTENDED SUMMER FUN!☀️

Did they really pull a rabbit out of a hat?! 🎩

Okay, maybe not... but week one of Extended Day Summer Camp at Hobe Sound Elementary School was pretty magical! ✨

From an awesome magic show to friendship games, butterfly magnet creations, and time spent diving into great books, campers kicked off summer with the perfect mix of fun and learning. 📚🦋☀️

This is just the start...much more fun is in store! You can check out the activities calendars for Extended Day Summer Camp here: https://www.martinschools.org/page/extended-day

⚽🌎 Our HSE Extended Day campers scored BIG this week! 🎉

As excitement builds around the FIFA World Cup, our campers had a blast learning about the world’s most popular sport while watching World Cup action and exploring lessons connected to the game. ⚽📚

To show their team spirit, students proudly wore their favorite soccer jerseys to camp, filling our campus with color, energy, and lots of smiles! ❤️💙💛💚

Thankful for our HSE Extended Day leaders for creating opportunities for our Eagles to learn, connect, and have fun through real-world experiences throughout the summer. What an exciting week of teamwork, sportsmanship, and global learning! 🌍🦅⚽

📚✨ Hobe Sound Elementary teachers are already soaring into the 2026-2027 school year! 🦅💙

Many of our teachers spent the first week of summer attending professional learning opportunities during MCSD Summer Summit. Through these experiences, they strengthened their skills, expanded their knowledge, and built valuable professional partnerships with colleagues from across the district. 🤝📖🌟

We are proud of their commitment to continuous growth and learning so they can provide the very best for our Eagles each and every day.

🎉🌿CELEBRATING EVERGLADES CHAMPIONS🌿🎉

The Martin County School District is proud to celebrate six schools that have been recognized as Everglades Champion Schools by the Everglades Foundation! 👏

These schools went above and beyond to bring Everglades literacy to life through hands-on learning, interdisciplinary projects, field experiences, and conservation-focused initiatives. Congrats to:

🥇 Hobe Sound Elementary School
🥇 Jensen Beach Elementary School
🥇 Palm City Elementary School
🥈 The Pinewood Elementary School
🥈 SeaWind Elementary School
🥉 Bessey Creek Elementary School

Living on Florida’s Treasure Coast, our students have a natural connection to the resources that shape our region. Through the work of teachers, administrators, and students, these schools are strengthening that connection through meaningful, hands-on learning that stays with students long after the lesson ends.
