Mrs. Skidmore’s class was full sweet smiles as they celebrated Valentine’s Day with their classmates.
They created the most adorable little love bugs and they were absolutely precious!
We are so thankful for our wonderful parents who joined us and helped make the day extra special. It’s moments like these that make our school community so sweet! 💕✨









Mrs. Young’s Valentines had the sweetest time creating their Valentine holders and they are simply bee-utiful! From bright yellow stripes to tiny wings add those smiling faces and their hard work really created a hive of happiness in the classroom.

We are proud to celebrate three of our High School Band students who were selected to participate in the First IECC Jazz Festival at Lincoln Trail College!
Grace Penrod, Kaitlyn Rankin, and Anna-Marie Maxey were chosen from nominations to take part in this incredible opportunity. Throughout the day, they rehearsed alongside members of the Lincoln Trail College and OCC Jazz Bands, gaining valuable experience in jazz performance and collaboration.
After a full day of practice, they showcased their hard work in a 6:00 PM concert. They worked hard, learned a great deal, and had a lot of fun representing Martinsville.
We are proud of these talented Bluestreak musicians for stepping outside their comfort zones and embracing this opportunity!

Hands-on learning + creativity = the best kind of preschool day! 🌈💙
