During the recently completed College Application Week, seniors at Monroe High School submitted 615 college applications, 532 of which were to in-state institutions.

     In all, 343 members of the senior class submitted at least one college application and 226 seniors submitted their first college application ever during College Application Week.

     A major push for college applications is being made at Monroe High School this year, with a whole day – October 28 – of College Application Week dedicated to being career and college-ready for the entire student body.  While seniors spent a portion of the day completing their college applications, they also participated in such activities as completing resumes for job and scholarship opportunities, performing a career inventory, doing college and career searches and completing specific career and college activities for their educational development plans.   

     Every activity was geared toward helping the students to succeed.
