EAGLE HONOR IS CELEBRATING ITS 13TH YEAR!
About the Event:
Each department within Monroe nominates an 8th grade student who most clearly exhibits
the six principles of the Medal of Honor: Courage, Sacrifice, Patriotism, Citizenship, and In-
tegrity. Students who are nominated should also have a commitment for his/her academic
achievement, dedication to the school’s values and outstanding character.
The nominated students, in turn, select a teacher from Monroe Middle School who has
impacted them in a special way throughout their educational experience. The student
and parent(s), along with the chosen faculty member, will be honored during a dinner
at a banquet ceremony.
This dinner not only honors the students and their achievements, but also the teachers
and parents whose time and dedication have helped to shape these young men and
women.

“The Eagle Honor Dinner is a memorable event that brings students, families, and staff together to celebrate each other! I enjoy seeing the pride parents have for their child and the smiles on the faces of our students who are grateful to be recognized for their accomplishments. It is a special moment for everyone involved! ”
Tamy Scioli
8th Grade ELA Teacher
“The Eagle Honor ceremony has been an outstanding way to recognize those students and staff who have made a lasting impact on others. It has provided a unique opportunity to bring together stakeholders throughout the community and allows relationships to be developed in ways that the traditional school setting does not allow for. ”

Health Office Reminders:
1. 8th grade parents, please remember to make appointments to get your
physicals and dental forms completed for high school. If you complete them
before May 15th, you can send them here to Monroe and we will make sure the
high school receives them. The high school wants them at the beginning of the
school year. Exclusion day will be the day after labor day (September 5th, 2023).
The district does not accept appointment dates, so you must have the physical
form turned in by that date or your student will have to stay home until it is
completed. Please reach out to our office if you need any resources to get a
physical completed.
2. Reminders of when to keep your student home:
a. Please remember to call the attendance office and let us know the
specific reason for your child’s absence.
b. If your child has a fever of 100.00 or higher, they must stay home for 24
hours after the fever subsides without use of tylenol, advil, etc.
c. If your child has vomiting or diarrhea, please keep them home for 24 hours
after the symptoms subside and until they can tolerate a normal diet.
d. If your child has a cough (not related to asthma), please keep them home
until the symptoms have improved.
e. Any signs of illness such as sore throat, congestion, runny nose that
prevent them from being able to focus and participate in learning.
f. The district still recommends, but does not require covid testing. Signs of
covid are cough, sore throat, fever, congestion/runny nose, fatigue, aches

please keep them home until these symptoms improve and follow the
