All MPS students in grades Y5-12 may apply to participate in the Summer Learning Academy!!! Just like an athlete needs to exercise regularly to stay at the top of his game, so do students!

The MPS Summer Learning Academy is designed around your child’s interests and academic needs; stretching every child’s reading, writing and math levels. It will be an opportunity for students to spend extended time in literacy or math to get a jump start for the upcoming school year.

 Choose 3 interest camps that they will participate during a portion of the day
 Be part of a book club and write your own book
 Solve fun and challenging problems with friends

Monroe High School’s after-hours Certified Nursing Assistant class still has a few openings and you do not have to be a Monroe High School student to qualify.  

Starting Monday, September 14, this after-school class will meet once weekly from 3:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Mondays, and will run for the entire 2015-16 school year.  

All Monroe County high school seniors in any public or private school with an interest in Health Careers, and with good attendance and discipline records, are invited to the first meeting where you can still enroll.  Details will be worked out for class credits and scheduling with each school district that has a  student participation in this county-wide Career and Technical Education (CTE) offering.

Earlier registration and more information is available by calling MHS CTE Director Bill Ferrara at 734-265-3453.

A Back-to-School newsletter is now out and is being distributed with various pieces of information, tips and schedules needed for the soon-to-start school year.  It also includes a piece from Dr. Martin, our superintendent, about how the word, TROJANS, describes what we as Monroe Public Schools, offer to our students and families.  A copy is attached to this posting. Enjoy, and we will see everyone back in class on September 8.  Have a safe weekend.

Thursday's edition of the Monroe News contained the bus routes for this coming school year.  The routes also can be found here by clicking on the "Bus Routes" icon on this web site.  If you want to see the information published in the Monroe News, click on this link.  http://www.monroenews.com/news/2015/sep/03/monroe-schools-announces-bus-schedule/

Just as children are returning to school comes the return to Community Education with the release of the fall classes catalogue.  Some old favorites are back but the list of nearly 80 classes includes some first-time offerings which are bound to be very popular.

     “We are very happy with the classes we have this fall and we are confident the community will be, too,” said Amy Poley, Director of Community Education.  “It doesn’t matter if you want to keep fit with some of our exercise classes, learn a new hobby or want to check out some of our special programs, we strive to have something to appeal to almost every interest.”

     Among the nearly 80 classes that are available are 12 arts and crafts, 12 special programs, 10 fitness and recreation, 10 children’s-related offerings, eight sewing and needlecraft and six water-related classes.

     Back again this fall are belly dancing, digital camera and homemade herbal remedies, as well as kickboxing/bootcamp, Tai Chi, aqua dancercise, crocheting, knitting, sewing and a taste of preschool and other classes, too.  The drop-in swim at Monroe Middle School has been changed to make it even more popular, flexible and affordable.

     New offerings this fall term include simple ways to manage diabetes, CPR/AED and first aid, and a discover scuba diving experience.

     “The discover scuba diving experience is a one-night class which is offered five times during October so people who always have wondered about scuba diving can check it out to see if they might want to pursue it further,” Mrs. Poley said.

     All classes must be prepaid and there are various ways to register.  Phone registrations are accepted by using Visa, Mastercard or Discover only at 734-265-3170.  You can register by mail by completing the registration form in the catalogue and sending it with a check or money order made payable to Monroe Public Schools and mailing it to Community Education, 1275 N. Macomb St., Monroe, MI  48162.  Registrations will be taken in person at the Community Education office from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., daily.

     Persons who may not have received a catalogue can pick one up at the Community Education office at the Monroe Public Schools Administration Building.  It is also is displayed on line on the Monroe Public Schools website at http://monroepublic.cyberschool.com/files/user/506/file/MPS%20Fall%202015%20-%20revised(1).pdf

The Monroe High School Band will take its annual tour of the Monroe Public Schools’ elementary schools on Thursday, September 17.

     As in the past, the 95-member band will travel from school-to-school and give a 10-minute concert at each school, playing in the school’s parking lot, play ground or front lawn.  The marking band will perform three of its fall songs, ending the concert with the MHS fight song. 

     At each stop, teachers bring their students out to enjoy the “big kids” playing music in the band.

The bus schedules and routing information now are available on-line and will be printed in the Thursday edition of the Monroe News.  Check out the schedules here on our website.  Click on the bus routes icon and follow the prompts.  If you have transportation questions you may contact the Transportation office at 734-265-3300 between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.
