One Team. One Goal. Every Play Counts!

OPEN HOUSE REMINDER!

Minnie Ruffin families, don’t forget about Open House! We look forward to welcoming our Baby Wildcats and their families for an opportunity to meet teachers, visit classrooms, receive important information, and learn how we can work together for a successful school year. 💜💛

Game On—Every Play Counts!

A Monroe City Schools team of administrators, teachers, and staff recently attended the Ron Clark Academy, where they participated in two days of high-impact professional learning led by Ron Clark and his exceptional team.

They return inspired and equipped with innovative strategies to increase student engagement and achievement. As we begin the new school year, MCS is Going for the GOLD by bringing high energy, high engagement, and high expectations to every classroom, every student, every day.
