My overall experience at Monroe High School was one that I could never forget. Arriving fresh out of middle school, Monroe has really impacted me in ways I cannot describe. I never thought of a school's mascot being a type of natural disaster, the tornado. I met career oriented peers, extremely helpful teachers, and caring couselors. Although no school is perfect, I deem Monroe as a perfect high school. I will forever cherish my time there and at heart I will always be a tornado.

Monroe is a pretty good school and they did their best at teaching us coming back from the pandemic. There was still plenty of student evolvement in every activity we had. As the year winded down, c/o 22 really had a blast.
