Our thoughts remain with Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, Broward County Public Schools and the City of Parkland as we remember the 17 lives lost and many more who were injured during a senseless tragedy four years ago.
We will never forget. #MSDStrong🦅
Every child is one caring adult away from being a success story.
Thank you to all of our outstanding school counselors for "being the one" for our students.

🌲🍎EDUCATING ALL STUDENTS FOR SUCCESS🍎🌲
Hold on to your heartstrings, Martin County! This powerful story of what it means to go #ALLINMartin👊 for students is one you'll want to read the whole way through.
When one educator unexpectedly had to take time off during the second semester, two Martin County School District Adult Education teachers quickly volunteered to fill in. They agreed to cover their colleague's night courses, which they dutifully completed after their daytime classes each week. While this was more than enough, the pair decided to take their commitment a step further than anyone could have imagined.
"As we approach the holidays, many reflect on peace, joy and holiday customs," said Melissa Eversdyke, Coordinator of Adult Education. "While teaching our tremendous students about American customs and traditions within the curriculum of math and language, the teachers decided to implement some project-based learning."
English is not the first language for many of our adult learners. Eight of the 14 students enrolled in this class are having their first holiday in the United States away from their families and friends. To practice their skills and enhance the curriculum, the teachers decided to have students participate in a no-bake ornament recipe, which required them to discuss shapes, measure geometric angles and enjoy holiday decorating. The students now have a "tradition" of their own and an experience in learning they'll never forget!
At the conclusion of the activity, one student proudly exclaimed, "¡Nuestros corazones están llenos de orgullo y alegría hoy!" (Our hearts are filled with pride and joy today).
⛄HAPPY WINTER BREAK!⛄
All District schools will be closed December 20 - December 31, 2021, for Winter Break. Classes will resume Monday, January 3, 2022.
We wish all of our students, employees and families a safe and relaxing holiday season!
