๐พโฝ๏ธ A WIN FOR THE ANIMALSโฝ๏ธ๐พ
Last night was no ordinary soccer game between South Fork High School and Martin County High School's girls' varsity teams.
Student-athletes came up with the idea to waive the entrance fee for all spectators who brought an animal toy or food. It was a huge success! All the toys and food will be donated to the Humane Society of the Treasure Coast!
The game ended in a scoreless tie, but the players and community came out with an extraordinary win! Both teams posed for this celebratory picture after the game. โฝ๏ธ๐พ๐
Way to go, Bulldogs and Tigers! We are #MCSDBetterTogether!

๐AVID AT AMWAY๐
AVID students from Martin County High School and Jensen Beach High School recently experienced the magic of AVID at the "AVID at the Amway" event in Orlando, Florida!
Students met AVID Alumni, participated in a college fair and heard from a panel of Orlando Magic employees about their paths to success in both college and career. Gavin Farrell, a 9th-grade AVID student at MCHS, was chosen to participate in a basketball challenge during the event!
Students were given tickets to the Orlando Magic basketball game that evening! That's a slam dunk AVID experience! ๐โจ
