🚍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.

Port Salerno Elementary would like to showcase one of its exceptional teachers: Mrs. Zarrella! She has been doing amazing, standards-based work within her life science unit in the classroom with her students. Below is her description of the activity:
Here are some pictures of us beginning our Growing Young Minds activity. We will continue to work on the project over the next month as students will neglect one plant and be kind to another. They are working on their understanding of what plants need, how they should treat others, and being positive and helping others can grow both them and the one they are helping. I would love to give a shout out to Mrs. Florio. She has been instrumental in helping me with both science projects my class is currently working on.
Our hypothesis is Plants: Plants will grow if we nurture them by giving them air, water, soil, and sunlight.
Learners: Our brain/spirit will grow and we will learn if we are nurtured with positive thoughts and guidance.
