We are the home of the free because of the brave. With respect, honor and gratitude - thank you, veterans! Classes will resume tomorrow, November 12. #ALLINMartin👊

Red, White, and Blue! PCE would like to recognize the bravery and sacrifice of all our US Veterans. We are so grateful for your service to our country. In recognition of Veterans Day, we would like to thank special guests, Sergeant Rivera and his service dog Wallie, for visiting our 5th Graders. Thank you for inspiring our Wildcats to be brave citizens too! 🇺🇸

Did you know that our 2nd Graders, at PCE, have partnered with our community non-profit, Keep Martin Beautiful? KMB gracious supplied all the necessary tools for the “Campus Cleanup Crew” to preserve and enhance out PCE Community! Each week a different 2nd Grade class will be volunteering to keep our campus free of litter and debris! Shout out to Mrs. Belowch’s Class this week and all of your hard work! #AmericaRecycles #PAWS4thePlanet #TogetherWeGoFar

🦃GIVING BACK🦃 Voluntary Pre-Kindergarten (VPK) students at Palm City Elementary School are proudly supporting Elev8hope's Thanksgiving drive for the benefit of needy families in our community.

"Our hearts were full when we delivered them and got to see all that has been donated by our PCE families!" #ALLINMartin👊, indeed.

🚍SCHOOL BUS SAFETY🚍 The Martin County School District is proud to celebrate #NationalSchoolBusSafetyWeek. School bus transportation plays a critical role in the education of our students - our buses travel more than 1.7 million miles each year! Help promote safety in our community by exercising caution when sharing the roadways with our school buses. Limit distractions, obey all traffic laws and be mindful of students waiting at bus stops. #ALLINMartin👊

It's time to celebrate! The Martin County School District has retained its state designation as an Academically High-Performing School District for the third consecutive year. MCSD is one of just 16 Florida school districts - and the only district on the Treasure Coast - to earn the prestigious award for the 2020-2021 school year.

💖CUTENESS OVERLOAD💖 Voluntary Pre-Kindergarten (VPK) students at Palm City Elementary School had the opportunity to celebrated the culmination of their "Under Construction" curriculum unit in a very special way this morning! Donning hard hats and using their safest eyes, ears and walking feet, students were able to meet the jobsite foreman, peek through the windows of their new school building, ask questions and see real construction equipment in action! The construction of the new Palm City and Jensen Beach elementary schools is being funded by the half-cent sales tax referendum that was generously approved by Martin County voters in 2018. We appreciate Paul Jacquin & Sons Construction and our Facilities Department for embracing our youngest students' vast curiosity and fostering their developing inquiry skills. What may have seemed like a few minutes of a visit resulted in memories that will last a lifetime! #ALLINMartin👊
