A comment from a Martin County School Board member regarding students watching movies in class before Thanksgiving break sparked outrage with a popular online mom group.
If voters in August renew a property tax for Martin County School District expenses, teachers could get $9.7 million out of the possible $13.7 million.
When voters in Martin County head to the polls next month, they’ll be asked to approve the continuation of a property tax hike for county schools first passed in 2018.
