🍎EDUCATING ALL STUDENTS FOR SUCCESS🍎
Four Martin County schools have been recognized for their efforts to build and sustain a multi-tiered systems of support (MTSS) framework. MTSS refers to all instructional strategies, interventions and other resources that are implemented by school teams to help all students achieve. Effective MTSS builds culturally responsive academic and behavior supports to create effective environments that address a range of student needs.
Florida's Problem Solving/Response to Intervention Project's Recognized Schools program honors schools for the work they are doing in building and sustaining their MTSS. The Martin County School District accounted for 20% of recognitions received throughout the state for the 2020-2021 school year.
Congratulations to the following schools:
🍎Bessey Creek Elementary School
🍎Jensen Beach Elementary School
🍎Palm City Elementary School
🍎Warfield Elementary School

🛠️OUR DOLLARS, OUR DISTRICT🛠️
Construction continued on the new Jensen Beach Elementary School campus before dawn on Friday morning. Crews continued to pour concrete for the foundation of the new school. The new JBE and Palm City Elementary School buildings are being funded by the half-cent sales tax that was generously approved by Martin County voters in 2018.
Take a look at all capital projects that are underway or have recently been completed throughout the Martin County School District: https://bit.ly/3C5PLRK.
