I would like to wish everyone a safe and enjoyable summer vacation.  A notice will come home over the summer with details for the start of the next school year.

 I am hoping the weather holds off long enough for everyone to at least get into the building tonight for our dance.  I have added a Martin Events section to the blog for those who miss any of our informational evenings.  Stay tuned for even more helpful additions to the site.

Our MCAS Night went well last night.  Thank you to those in attendance for taking time from your busy schedules.  If you were unable to attend but would still like information from the evening, please notify your child's teacher and a packet from last night can be sent home.

I would like to congratulate all 5th grade band members on their performance in last night's concert.  Your hard work really showed in both the solo performances and the whole band selections.  Thank you to all the parents for driving your child in early on Tuesdays and encouraging them to practice and play an instrument.

Welcome to my new blog.  We are officially in the second half of the year. February is a busy month both here at Martin and district wide. I look forward to seeing as many families as possible at the various events.
