After 40 incredible years with the Martin County School District, The Pinewood Elementary's beloved Assistant Principal Patty Morris is heading into retirement!
Ms. Morris has done it all—teacher, coach, leader—across elementary, middle, and high school levels. For the last decade, she’s been a bright light at Pinewood, known for her festive outfits, signature “hug corner,” and iconic Elf on the Shelf antics. Her energy and heart have left a lasting impact on students and staff alike.
Superintendent Michael Maine and the School Board were honored to celebrate her 40-year career during the board meeting on June 17.
Thank you, Ms. Morris, for 40 years of heart, humor, and dedication. We wish you the very best in retirement!
