November 18th - 22nd, 2024

As we approach Thanksgiving Break, we want to express our gratitude to our parents and community. There are been countless gestures of kindness toward our staff this year - Sonic drinks, words of affirmation, staff appreciation lunches, notes/emails with encouragement, gifts from class wish lists, and more. We are truly surrounded by love and support at Monroe. Thank YOU!!

Some have asked as well about how they can recognize staff members. If you'd like to submit a Staff Shout Out to tell us how a staff member brightens your child's day or has shown kindness in any way, please click the button below! We will use these to celebrate our staff and also share them specifically with the person you recognize! These Shout Outs mean the world to those who receive them, and we appreciate you taking the time to complete them!

You're invited to our Thanksgiving meal!

Please be sure you read details so that you are fully informed if you attend our Thanksgiving meal! All visitors MUST check in at the front office with a valid ID. If you have a FAST pass, this can help get you in quicker. Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten students will eat lunch at the same time. We will have additional tables in the cafeteria as well for more seating. Please bring $5 cash if you plan to eat, as we will not be able to take cards.
