Thank you to our fantastic MHS student-athletes for celebrating Read Across America Week with our young readers!
Yesterday, student-athletes from Martinsville High School travelled to Clearview, Albert Harris, and Patrick Henry to read with some of our classes. It was inspiring to watch these student-athletes sharing stories with our young learners.
Thanks for helping us inspire a love of reading and learning in the next generation!
Last night we celebrated our 8th grade winter athletes and their families!
Balancing the demands of academics with those of athletics can be a difficult task, but these talented student-athletes make it look easy! Thank you, students and families, for showing us what #BulldogPride is all about. We can't wait to keep cheering you on at the high school level next year!

Last night we celebrated Senior Night for our girls basketball players!
This was an opportunity for the team and our community to celebrate our senior student-athletes who have given so much heart to their sport. We also celebrate and recognize the families who have supported each of these students along the way.
Congratulations, seniors! We are so proud to call each of you a Bulldog!
Join us in welcoming the newest members of the Martinsville High School Chapter of the National Honor Society!
We are grateful to have such an amazing group of student leaders in our schools who truly embody the NHS pillars of scholarship, service, leadership, and character. These principles, according to NHS, "are transformative keys that unlock potential, enhancing every student’s educational journey, and ultimately empowering them to make profound, enduring contributions to our world."
It was great to see so many of our community members enjoying last night's trunk-or-treat at MHS!
Thank you to the Beta Club and SCA for organizing such a great event! We hope it will continue to grow and become an annual tradition here at MCPS!
Congratulations to our Senior cheerleaders, who were recognized during Friday night's Senior Night!

Today was a perfect day for a field trip! 🍂
Our PHES and AHES fourth graders traveled to Fairy Stone State Park today to plant the native black willow trees they have been sprouting in their classrooms thanks to the Dan River Basin Association's Streamside Trees in the Classroom.
Students spent the whole day outside at the park, immersed in all things nature. Besides planting their trees, they also learned about the important role riparian buffers play in protecting our waterways, the geology of fairy stones, played a trivia game, and more!
Our MHS AP biology students also got in on the fun, preparing and facilitating some creative activities for the younger students!
Thank you to all of our amazing high school students, teachers, and community partners who came together to make this day possible for our young learners!

Today is the 20th day of school! Students who have missed two or more days by this point in the school year are considered chronically absent.
It's never too early to start building the habit of good attendance!
Children who are chronically absent in preschool, kindergarten, and first grade are much less likely to read at grade level by third grade.
Students who cannot read at grade level by the end of third grade are 4 times more likely to drop out of high school.
