Monroe 8th Grade Families-

This is it - last week of middle school! 

Please see below for end of year details to celebrate our 8th graders!

8th Grade Photo Memory Board: Tri-folds are available for parents to pick up in the front officeIf you would like your student to pick up the tri-fold please have them come to the front office or we will distribute them to students TODAY in Block classes. This will replace our photo slideshow that we’ve historically shown. We’ll provide each family with a standing tri-fold to decorate, put pictures on, write memories, share words of encouragement, etc. that will be displayed in the gym during our promotion ceremony - example attached. Once your memory board is complete drop it off in the front office by June 12th.
