Hello Monroe families! Each week during the month of March we will be handing out prizes to kids that are on time to school. Being on time is being in the school before the second bell rings at 7:40am.

We will do this one (announced) day per week - so work hard to get your students to school ON TIME EVERY DAY so they do not miss out on the prize!

Thanks so much for your help!
