Sapphire Elementary students participated in a "soup-er" generous event this winter! The "Soup-er" Bowl Food Drive, spearheaded by Nancy Peifer and Camille Lucaine, collected a grand total of 619 cans of non-perishable food items in just one month. The items, as well as some cash donations, were donated to Our Father's Kitchen, a local food pantry in Monroe.
Thank you to Sapphire Elementary for contributing to such a great cause! M-W is so proud of you.

As her time in Monroe-Woodbury heads to the finish line, MWHS Senior Chloe Chambers keeps her energy focused on one main goal: being a professional race car driver. And, by all accounts, nothing will slow her down.
Tonight, Monday, March 7, Chloe will be on America’s Got Talent Extreme on NBC at 8/7c. Chloe filmed this segment in October at Porsche North America’s headquarters in Atlanta with NBC (and Simon Cowell). Make sure and tune in!
Chloe was selected to race in the third season of the W Series (https://wseries.com/), the female-only racing series that runs in support of the Formula One World Championship. Chloe has returned to school today after testing at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya in Spain last week with the race series. In May, she will suit up for her first race in the W Series at the Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix. This is a big step up in the racing ladder as Chloe competed in the US Formula4 series last season. The W Series runs a larger, heavier and faster Formula Regional race car.
Good luck, Chloe! We can't wait to see where all your hard work and talent take you!
Let's go Crusaders! Good luck!
