Marco Island Academy has achieved remarkable success in the 10 years since it began in a rented space, before moving to prefabbed modular classrooms. Now, the school is racing to complete its state-of-the-art permanent home, thanks to the vision of its leaders, particularly founder and board chair Jane Watt, and the generosity of well-heeled and public-spirited donors.
The three-story academic center, Manta Ray Hall and the arts and athletic facility are fully up, dried in, and having interior finishes and equipment put into place, next to the existing campus on San Marco Road. The push is on, said Watt, to have the gymnasium ready to hold the school’s graduation ceremony at the end of this academic year in May.

A member of the North Carolina State Highway Patrol is under investigation after a Facebook post in which he called the Black Lives Matter movement a “racist money laundering hate group.”
Master Trooper Mark Melvin made the post in December, and it has since been deleted. On Monday, he was placed on administrative duty while an internal administrative investigation is ongoing.
Melvin tagged himself present at last week’s “Stop the Steal” rally in Washington, D.C., and posted two dozen photos with the words “Time To Save America!”
In the fall, he posted about Gov. Roy Cooper’s coronavirus curfew order, writing, “I will not be enforcing this.”
