students and teachers work hard all year to improve
academically. We assess constantly to make appropriate
instructional choices. One
of the many assessment tools we utilize is the Iowa Test
of Basic Skills. This is the instrument
Iowa

it’s really important to us!

- Family
Math Night
-
Monroe
families participated in a Family Math night on
Thursday, November 15th. Families were treated to a
hot dog dinner and then learned to play several games
from around the world. Families talked about
strategy, discovered numerical and visual patterns,
used mental math, and explored geometry while having
a great time. At the end of the night each
family took home a math game to continue to enjoy in the
future. Thanks to Ms. Ceurvorst and the Monroe Dad's
Club for organizing this fun event!

Eat
At Wendy's!
Monroe
and Wendy’s have formed a partnership that will be
very  profitable
for us! Every Tuesday from 5:00 PM -8:00 PM, Wendy’s
will give us a full 10% of all sales from their West
Locust Store to use for materials and programs that
help
Monroe’s kids. This is incredibly generous and all we need
to do is to eat at Wendy’s on Tuesday nights!
