Winterfest approaches at MHS
February 17, 2016 Syndicated from District

     “Superhero” will be the theme of the 2016 Monroe High School Winterfest, running Monday, Feb. 22, through Saturday, Feb. 27.   

     The court assembly and introduction of the candidates will be held Monday morning, Feb. 22, and the student body will vote on Tuesday, Feb. 23.  The popular food court is set for Thursday, Feb. 25, and as the school day nears an end on Friday, February 26, the school will have a pep assembly.

     A new twist this year is the tussle between the Trojan Family Time classes promoting their teachers as superheros.  On Tuesday, students will bring in superhero clothing and accessories for their teachers and dress them like a superhero.  Pictures will be taken and the top two teachers in each grade level will be featured in photos posted on the Monroe Public Schools Facebook page, where people will be encouraged to “like” their favorite.

     The pictures also will be posted in the Commons during lunch periods on Thursday and Friday of Winterfest week.  Students will vote for their favorite superheros by placing monetary votes in a container for each grade level.  The class with the most money collected and Facebook likes will win bragging rights and the money collected will go to that class to defray their prom costs. 

     On Friday night, Bedford will provide the opposition as the MHS girls and Bedford girls basketball teams meet at 5:30 p.m. and the MHS and Bedford boys basketball teams meet at 7 p.m.  Half-time crowing of the Winterfest Queen and Mr. Legs will take place at half time -- freshmen and sophomores during the girls game and juniors and seniors during the boys game.   The week concludes with the Winterfest Dance at 7 p.m., Saturday, where the royalty will be honored. 

     Winterfest royalty candidates are:  9th grade – girls, Kaylyne Ford, Mikayla Freeman, Celeste Milligan and Delaney Salenbien; boys, Blake Amato, Mitchell Carter, Toryn Johnson, and Maleik Linton.  10th grade – girls, Jaclyn Clark, Juliza Jiminez, Riley Oetjens, and Kalani Sweat; boys, Jack Bailey, Mahmud Bakr, Ashton Bowman and Cameron Knapp.  11th grade—girls, Celena Bakr, Claire Burke, Maiya Hegyi and Emma Kimble; boys, Mikal Farris, Brandon Matthews, Omar Montague and Cameron Tubbs.  12th grade – girls, Cassie Complo, Dorothy Gilbert, Kennedi Kane, and Kelsey Pabin; boys, Dawson Kopp, Tevin Nickols, Mitchell Sweat and Jacob Traver.
