The 23-24 Monroe PTO could absolutely not function without the generous time and talent of our community parents. Over the next few weeks, we would like to express our deepest THANK YOUS to wonderful parents who help so much! These jobs are time consuming and sometimes thankless- we appreciate you!

Thank you MIRA BONEVA-COLEMAN and LESLEY DAWARAVOO for organizing an exciting One Book One School event! Students and their families are raving about The Wild Robot, and loved all the work you put into Fine Arts Night!

Thank you SHAUNA PHELAN AND VANESSA FAVIA for not only chairing hot lunch, but making it possible to have it every.single.Friday!!! It is a lot of work to coordinate and a weekly time commitment for you both; but parents have rejoiced at the option of not having to pack lunch 1x a week!

Thank you JEN CARMODY AND HOLLY DANCER for organizing the monthly birthday lunch! The students love to feel special on their birthdays with Mrs. Eder!

Thank you ELLEN DUNLAP, DIEM TOM, BECKY BACOGIANNIS and CATEY WHITE for chairing the 2024 Family Fun Fest! This is a huge undertaking, and an event Monroe loves so much! We can’t wait for this year's Fest and appreciate all you have done for it!

Thank you KRISTINA GLEESON, MIRA BONEVA-COLEMAN and NICOLE STAPLETON for being our 5th Grade Culmination team!
