FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Stuart, FL - Martin County School District (MCSD) students will not be required to make up the four school days missed due to recent hurricanes.
 
Recent named storms led to school closures as MCSD prioritized the safety of students, staff and families. Fortunately, the District’s instructional calendar is structured in a way that positions students to complete the academic year and meet state requirements without the need to add make-up days for time lost during the closures.
 
While no make-up days for students are necessary at this time, the District remains committed to supporting the community through ongoing recovery efforts. In collaboration with the Education Foundation of Martin County, MCSD continues to offer assistance to the Martin County community, including extending free meals to students during the current week and access to a relief fund to aid those affected by the storms.
