Martin County JROTC department is proud to sponsor our next blood drive with the American Red Cross on the 2nd of October 2024, 8:30 am - 2:00 pm in the Auditorium lobby.
An estimated 38 percent of Americans are eligible to give blood or platelets, but of those, less than 10 percent donate each year. If you are healthy and eligible, please come out to donate. Most donations take about an hour, so book your appointment, roll up your sleeve, and become a part of the lifesaving mission.
Contact a JROTC cadet, go by the JROTC classroom (#914) Sign up at RedCrossBlood.org using zip code: 27892.
There are many ways you can help, but most importantly we hope you come out to donate. Thank you for making this blood drive a success and by adding it to our list of great accomplishments this school year.

Martin Innovative Early College Program
An awesome experience for MCS students today at the Innovation Campus & Early College with BeProBeProudNC. What an amazing facility to participate in North Carolina's trade industry. Students welded, drove 18 wheelers, operated an industrial crane and excavator, timber machinery, and had options to work in the plumbing, electrical, diesel mechanic, or construction field. MCS wants to provide every student, every opportunity! Tomorrow the BPBPNC Trades Truck rolls on to the campus of Martin County High School.
