Overall my experience in the last 4 years has been very positive. If I could change a few things it would have to be for few of the school administers to have more patients with students and treat them in a kinder manner. It seems at times they are very upset at their jobs and very unhappy and that way they take it out on the students.

There are many good things about Monroe high school. It is very diverse, the extracurriculars are great, and the graduation rate is very high compared to other schools. I have had a great experience, and it has helped me learn and grow as a person which has prepared me for college.

Monroe High school is very proud and does not disappoint in the way of school spirit. There have been however some recent issues with racism among a select few individuals. The administrative body has been working diligently to bring attention to this matter through social change opportunities. I believe the school is on the path to a bright future.

I went here all through school and my kids currently go here, elementary and high school. Majority of teachers are amazing. I have never seen racism or bullying. My kids have friends from all different ethnicities and have never had a problem. It's a small town school and I think many people moving...
