Martin County High School

In Loving Memory of Jaden Wiggins 🕊️💚🐊 Today, MCHS honored the life and memory of Jaden Wiggins, one of our own, with a tribute display in the main hall and by flying our flags at half-staff. Jaden was more than a student — he was a friend, a classmate, and a cherished member of our Gator family. His presence touched many, and his absence is deeply felt throughout our school and community. We extend our love and prayers to Jaden’s family, friends, and all who knew him. Once a Gator, Always a Gator.

🏌️‍♂️💚 MCHS Golf Team at State Playoffs 💚🏌️‍♂️ Today, the MCHS Golf Team competed in the state playoffs, representing our school with pride, strength, and unity. In a powerful tribute, the team wore ribbons in honor of our fallen Gator, keeping his memory close as they played. We are proud of our golfers—not only for their athletic performance but for the heart and character they showed on and off the course. 🐊💔

Students are hard at work in and out of the classroom in the CTE Agriculture and Natural Resources program. Pruning, weeding, and fertilizing are some of the skills gained by working in the campus garden. We provide options for all students. So if you don't have a green thumb to garden, students have constructed and stained beautiful summer picnic tables. Support your local MCS Ag program and FFA by purchasing one of these handcrafted beauties, just in time for the season ($100). Contact Caroline Patterson or Jason Wynne, 252-792-8812. These tables will go fast!
