As part of the Martin County School District’s commitment to providing exemplary service to our students and their families, technical support for students’ District-issued devices has been transitioned from the District Office to each school campus. Families in need of hardware or software support for District-issued devices should contact their child’s school for assistance. Educational Technology staff assigned to each campus will perform necessary repairs or issue replacements of devices/chargers. #ALLINMartin👊
