Doing what No One Else Does!
MCS Sr. Alijah Lassiter participated in a 3-hour work-based learning activity at Pitt Community College recently. Through MIG & TIG welding, along with grinding and smoothing of metal, Alijah was able to put his career interest into practice.




You do not have to wait for high school to take hands-on classes such as Exploring Environment and Natural Resources! Just as Samantha Hoggard's seventh graders at Riverside Middle School.
This morning students used a standard water monitoring kit to test water samples from the water fountain, the workroom sink, the Roanoke River, and the Pamlico River.
The samples were tested for dissolved oxygen, pH, turbidity, phosphate, and nitrate. They have been learning about water quality and pollution so this was a hands-on opportunity to analyze local water sources and our drinking water.

October is National Principals Month! We'd like to give a shout-out to our MCS Principals who lead their school teams every day - all to benefit our students!
We are proud to say four of our nine principals are graduates of Martin County Schools!
Donna Manning, Michelle Mobley, and Misty Rushing are graduates of Williamston High School and Dr. Angela Cross graduated from Roanoke High School.
Thank you Principals for all you do for our students!


Just as Dr. White stated, we have started a 5th-grade Career Awareness Program! Sharing information regarding CTE and answering questions regarding job and career opportunities made for a great afternoon at Jamesville Elementary and E.J. Hayes.



2nd & 7 made a stop at Rodgers Elementary School this morning to share another adventure with The Hog Mollies!
Jai'Marqus Jones, the team veteran; Gabby Bennett, Jurnee Matthewson and TyKala Beach teamed up and read to all of the RES second graders.
Before the team returned to their classes, they stopped to say good morning to Bryce and grab a photo!
As always, a big thank you to 2nd & 7 for making this opportunity possible for our athletes and our second graders!










As an MCS Intern in HS Counseling, Janielle James shares, "Another task that I do as an MCS Intern is show new students around RHS. This involves showing them where their classes are, who their teacher is, and where they will be coming in, and going out in the morning and at the end of the day. It is good to see new people coming to RHS and even better being able to show them around as one of the upperclassmen". Thank you Janielle for being an ambassador for RHS and assisting the school administration.
