Wildcat Families! Great job with arrival and dismissal. Tomorrow we will begin tardy passes for anyone arriving after the 7:30 late bell. Reminders! Pull all the way forward and have your window down school side for both arrival and dismissal. *The back entrance is for walkers/bikers only. This is a serious safety issue for walkers/bikers. Please be respectful of other people's children. * Thank you for your support and cooperation so we can safely get our students to and from school! PCE Administration, Teachers, & Staff

🛠️SOLID BASE, ENDLESS OPPORTUNITIES🛠️ August 2nd was a very busy and exciting day in the Martin County School District! Ribbon-cutting ceremonies were held at three brand-new facilities within the District: Jensen Beach Elementary School, Indiantown High School and Palm City Elementary School. Inside these walls, students can be assured they have a solid foundation and state-of-the-art amenities with room to grow and learn for generations to come. These brand-new schools would not be possible without the tremendous support of the community and Martin County taxpayers. We are truly grateful! Also, a shoutout goes to Proctor Construction Company (JBE contractor), Paul Jacquin & Sons, Inc. (PCE Contractor), and the District's Maintenance and Facilities staff for their hard work! Special thanks to Acacia Lodge No 163 F&AM for being part of this day and conducting Cornerstone Laying Ceremonies at JBE and PCE. ▶️ Watch a recap of the momentous day celebrating the fruition of dreams, hard work and unwavering support: https://youtu.be/3wcq1g01Rog #ALLINMartin👊 #MCSDBetterTogether💫
