🚍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.

💖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👊

Schools have sorted the reports - students' individual records will be sent home with them no later than tomorrow, October 4.
