Dear Key Largo School Families,
I wanted to take a moment to recognize the truly outstanding educators who make our school such a special place. Every day, our teachers go above and beyond to inspire, support, and guide our students, not just academically, but as growing individuals.
Their dedication, creativity, and care are at the heart of everything we do. Whether they are staying late to help a student, designing engaging lessons, or simply offering encouragement at the right moment, their impact is profound and lasting.
We are incredibly fortunate to have such passionate and committed professionals at Key Largo School. Please join me in expressing appreciation for the remarkable work they do each day.
Thank you for your continued support of our school community.
Mr. Pais

💧 Keep Kids Safe from Drowning 💧
Drowning can happen quickly and silently often when you least expect it. In Florida, it’s one of the leading causes of preventable death for children ages 1–4. But the good news? It’s preventable.
👀 Stay Alert: Always supervise children around water—no distractions, not even for a second.
🚧 Add Barriers: Secure pools with proper fencing, locks, and alarms.
🏊 Build Skills: Enroll kids in swim lessons and learn CPR—it can save lives.
👨👩👧 Make a Plan: Ensure everyone in your family knows water safety basics.
Most drownings happen quietly and often when children weren’t expected to be near water. Let’s work together to create safer environments for our kids.
