🎉CELEBRATING SCHOOL COUNSELORS🎉
In honor of National School Counseling Week, Martin County School District staff and students want to thank all the school counselors in the District!
Counselors do it all, from mental health and teaching Character Counts, to assisting students with their schedules and setting them up for life after high school...without school counselors, we don't have academic success!
Thank you, school counselors, for everything you do for students and staff.

Join Mrs. Nolan's SMART lab class who has partnered with the Martin County Fair to create a hands-on interactive science museum for the community. The area is over 2,000 square feet and has more than a dozen activities including a cave with stalagmites and fossilized sharks' teeth, an earthquake shake table, and a rocket launch to moon bases. In addition, there will be and science shows performed by our students. Our students and their families will be volunteering at the fair and would love to see you. The area is free with admission to the fair. The dates of the fair are Feb. 10- 18th.
Research has proven that informal learning opportunities increase a child's mastery of science concepts.
2nd graders in Mrs. Clark's class worked on a team building activity where they went around and wrote one thing they loved about each of their classmates ❤️
💡EMPOWERING STEM EDUCATORS💡
Thank you, @insidefpl and @educationfoundationmc, for the valuable professional development for our elementary STEM educators!
The Education Foundation of Martin County provided District teachers with a STEM-based learning opportunity that will benefit both their professional development and the education of students across our twelve elementary schools! The Foundation was able to do so through the FPL EmPOWERing STEM Educators Grant!

Mrs. Lodes' first graders have been working hard to compare numbers using a number line. They have also been learning about symbols to compare numbers!
Congratulations to Mason, Declin, and Brooklyn in Mrs. Lodes' class for earning their books from the Book Vending machine!
📚CELEBRATING OUR HISTORY📚
As our celebration of #BlackHistoryMonth continues, we spotlight two brothers who were educational pioneers in Martin County, Charles E. and Robert G. Murray.
Charles Murray founded the Stuart Training School in 1926 - this was the county's first high school for Black students. He remained principal until 1939 when his brother, Robert, took over.
Stuart Training School eventually became Spectrum Academy and Murray Middle School was named after the brothers.

Extended Day provides a quiet space for everyone to do their homework Mon-Thurs every week.
This is where we truly find out if our counselors are smarter than a fifth grader when it comes to fraction homework.
