The MWHS SADD club hosted a tabling event during lunch periods for students to make and exchange beaded friendship bracelets. Crusaders gathered around a table to design their own bracelet kits. Each kit included the pieces to make a bracelet they could share with a friend in celebration of Giving Tuesday. The club also encouraged fellow students to donate an unwrapped toy to be collected in support of the county-wide 2025 Toys for Tots campaign. 🧸💜

Students Against Destructive Decisions (SADD) is off to a great start this school year. Three Monroe-Woodbury students who serve as officers on the SADD NYS Student Leadership Council, Samantha Berrio, Daniela Gunning, and Julianna Fini, attended the National Leadership Summit at Georgia State University in July.

During Red Ribbon Week and National Teen Driver Safety Week, SADD partnered with the Alcohol and Drug Awareness Council of Orange County to host table events during lunch periods and play games prompting students to answer questions about teen driver safety. In addition, members created an M-W GOES RED sign at the front entrance to the high school and recorded segments for the Morning Show to remind their peers to stay drug free.

Great job, SADD members, for continuing to empower and engage peers in positive behavior! ❤️

Monroe-Woodbury’s Art department was treated to a very special performance during yesterday’s professional development day. The day began at Ann St. Gallery with a presentation from Will Carter, a former M-W Art Major and current artist and ended the day at Newburgh Pottery for a wheel throwing and hand building lesson. The best part of the day was hearing from Will how their problem-solving skills and creative beginning was at Monroe-Woodbury and how lucky they feel having had that experience. 💜
