Port Salerno Elementary School

🍎LEAVING A LEGACY🍎 On Tuesday evening, Superintendent Michael Maine and the Martin County School Board celebrated the career of Stuart Middle School's Ms. Mary Noorian. Ms. Noorian has been a Martin County School District educator for 31 years, focusing on computer-related education for most of her career. She started at Warfield Elementary School teaching Computer Lab and transferred to Palm City Elementary School to teach those kiddos how to use the computer. At one point, she helped teachers across the District how to set up and use the Microsoft Office Suite--when email was first introduced! She later worked at Port Salerno Elementary School as a Media Specialist for 14 years, then at Stuart Middle School as a media specialist for the last six years. You name the job or club sponsor; Ms. Noorian has done it! She always went the extra mile to support students, colleagues and parents. Ms. Noorian, we wish you the best in retirement spending time with your grandbabies and puppy. You will be missed! #ALLINMartin👊

💚MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS💚 Mental health is just as important as physical health. The Martin County School District is proud to celebrate Mental Health Awareness Month and contribute to the efforts that fight stigma, provide support, and enhance our knowledge about mental illness. Students, employees and families are encouraged to show support by wearing green tomorrow, Tuesday, May 16, in honor of our districtwide Mental Health Awareness Day. #ALLINMartin👊

🍎SHOWING APPRECIATION🍎 This afternoon, we have a very special appreciation shoutout for first-grade teacher Ms. Jackie Davis at Port Salerno Elementary School! "Mrs. Davis shares her heart with her students," grateful Martin County School Board Member Amy Pritchett shared. "The love and caring that she provides while teaching them is evident at all times. Her smile lights them up as well as her personality. She does the little things to make sure the students know how special they are. She welcomes them into the classroom with a big hearty good morning and the students respond in kind. The students and Martin County are so fortunate to have Mrs. Davis!" Thank you, Ms. Davis, for everything you do for your students! #ALLINMartin👊 #ThankATeacher
