Indiantown Middle School

🐝ICYMI: STELLAR SPELLERS SHINE🐝 The Martin County School District recently held the 57th Annual Lillian A. Dassori Elementary Spelling Bee at Jensen Beach High School. Students from all twelve of the District's elementary schools participated in seven rounds of competition, tackling tough words such as '"aardvark," "anathema," and "celestial." The winner of the Bee, Olivia Priddy from SeaWind Elementary - Hobe Sound, FL, nailed the winning word, "eschew." Watch a recap of the s-p-e-c-t-a-c-u-l-a-r event! https://youtu.be/PXhOmcDcF74 #ALLINMartin #PublicSchoolProud #MCSDTheRippleEffect

🚨LAW ENFORCEMENT ALERT FOR FAMILIES🚨 The Martin County Sheriff's Office is actively enforcing laws about the operation of unregistered golf carts in our community, particularly near school campuses. Golf carts are only permitted on roads with a maximum 35 mph speed limit, and that’s only if they are titled, registered, insured and have all the appropriate safety measures to make them street legal. Please be mindful of these regulations, as deputies will issue citations for violations. #ALLINMartin👊 #PublicSchoolProud

🚦RE-ENGINEERING ALGEBRA🚦 Do you ever hear the questions, "why do I need to learn algebra?" or "how will algebra help me in the future?" Mr. Love answers those questions during his amazing math session, and the students are thoroughly interested in what he has to teach! Thank you, Education Foundation of Martin County and Mr. Love, for bringing this amazing educational opportunity to Martin County School District middle schools. Mr. Love has been to Murray Middle School, Indiantown Middle School and Hidden Oaks Middle School so far this week. He will head to Stuart Middle School tomorrow and Dr. David L.
