🎉🌿CELEBRATING EVERGLADES CHAMPIONS🌿🎉

The Martin County School District is proud to celebrate six schools that have been recognized as Everglades Champion Schools by the Everglades Foundation! 👏

These schools went above and beyond to bring Everglades literacy to life through hands-on learning, interdisciplinary projects, field experiences, and conservation-focused initiatives. Congrats to:

🥇 Hobe Sound Elementary School
🥇 Jensen Beach Elementary School
🥇 Palm City Elementary School
🥈 The Pinewood Elementary School
🥈 SeaWind Elementary School
🥉 Bessey Creek Elementary School

Living on Florida’s Treasure Coast, our students have a natural connection to the resources that shape our region. Through the work of teachers, administrators, and students, these schools are strengthening that connection through meaningful, hands-on learning that stays with students long after the lesson ends.

Everglades Literacy Champion Schools

Big news, Panthers!

Pinewood Elementary has been named a Silver Level K-5 Everglades Champion School!

A huge shout-out to Mrs. Odza for leading the charge toward this amazing achievement. With support from our RA team and 4th grade teachers, students participated in engaging field trips, on-campus presentations, read-alouds, and creative art projects. Through these hands-on experiences, they learned why the Everglades are important and how they can help protect this incredible ecosystem for future generations.

We're proud to be growing the next generation of conservation stewards right here at Pinewood!
