Martinsville Community Unit School District #C3

MES would like to thank Casey State Bank for their donation to our Backpack Blessings Program.

The Martinsville High School Junior Class invites the community to attend the Red Carpet and Coronation on May 2 at 4:30 PM in the High School Gym.

Come out and support our students as they celebrate this special tradition. We hope you can make plans to attend this exciting event!

A huge congratulations goes out to Mrs. Smith! She was honored by the ROE with the Educator of Excellence Award, and we couldn’t be more proud! Mrs. Smith is a passionate and dedicated 2nd grade teacher who truly makes a difference each and every day. Her classroom is filled with positivity, encouragement, and a love for learning. She greets everyone with the brightest smile and always has uplifting words for her students and colleagues. Her commitment to her students goes far beyond academics; she builds relationships, inspires confidence, and helps every child feel valued and capable. Mrs. Smith represents what it means to be a Bluestreak through her kindness, hard work, and unwavering dedication. Martinsville Elementary is incredibly fortunate to have her on our team. This recognition is so well deserved, and we are proud to celebrate you, Mrs. Smith! 💙

It’s an ABC Countdown to Summer in Mrs. Young’s 1st grade! Today was “I is for Ice Cream” and that meant ALL the sprinkles and toppings! Smiles were big and the treats were even sweeter.

It’s been a busy week at MES! Our students have been hard at work researching and building bird feeders, learning about gardens and planting seeds, and sharing their love of reading. We love seeing hands-on learning and curiosity in action! A special highlight, Miss Paula had two sweet readers stop by to share a story with her today. Moments like these remind us what it’s all about. Great things are growing at MES!

Important Dates & Times for Shopping at the FFA Greenhouse

Yesterday, the students and staff at Martinsville Jr.–Sr. High School were blessed with a visit from Aubrey Hook and Emma from Massage Luxe in Terre Haute. Students had the opportunity to hear a career information presentation about the massage therapy field, and staff members who signed up were able to enjoy a relaxing chair massage.

Thank you to Aubrey and Emma for taking the time to share their knowledge and talents with our school community. What a great day to be a Bluestreak! 💙⚡

It’s Game Day for the Lady Bluestreaks! 💙⚡

They take on Ramsey at HOME today at 4:30 PM. Come out and support our girls as they hit the field and represent Martinsville with pride.

Let’s go, Lady Bluestreaks!

The JH/HS band and choir students had the opportunity to attend a field trip to Beef & Boards on April 29th. It was a fantastic experience, and we are so thankful our students were able to enjoy this special opportunity together.

The Martinsville Jr.–Sr. High School Band had the opportunity to perform for the residents at Heartland Nursing Home yesterday. 🎶 It was a wonderful experience for our students to share their music and spend time with members of our community. We are proud of the way they represented Martinsville and brought smiles to so many faces. Thank you to the residents and staff at Heartland for welcoming us—we truly enjoyed our visit!

Congratulations the Class of 2026 Prom Court:

Ben Hiatt, Keygan Finney, Emma Burson, Allison Chronic, Ava Pendleton, Drake Brant and Evan Seaman.

It doesn’t get much better than this at MES! Kindergarten readers falling in love with books, kids racing Miss Jenn down the slide with big smiles, special guest readers from 1st grade sharing their love of reading, and Mrs. Poston teaching students how to carefully candle an egg while learning about the growth of a chick. These are the moments that make elementary school so special, hands-on learning, joyful memories, and lots of smiles along the way!

April Kindness Challenge from Nurse Kannmacher:

🌷 Lift Others Up 🌷
This month, our students showed what it means to lift others up through kindness and encouragement.
From kind words to thoughtful actions, they made a difference! 💙⚡
We are so proud of our MES students and staff!
