Dear Monomoy Middle School Families,
Thank you to everyone who joined us for a fantastic time at our Friday night social! We saw some amazing costumes, allowing students to show off their creativity in ways that were seriously impressive. From funny to spooky, to clever, everyone brought something special to the event. We’re grateful for the energy and enthusiasm our students, families, and staff brought to make it such a memorable evening! Thank you to the class of 2026 for hosting!
In partnership,
Abby Dudley
Principal
