Due to forecasts for inclement weather, all Monroe-Woodbury schools and offices will operate on a 2-hour delay schedule on Monday, December 16. Students will be picked up at bus stops two hours later than usual.
The start of the academic day will be as follows:

All CTE programs at BOCES will be bused based on the Monroe-Woodbury schedule. Students will not be charged for absence from BOCES if buses are not available. BOCES delayed opening cancels morning CTE programs. Safe travels, Crusaders!

Members of the Monroe-Woodbury High School basketball teams gathered to stuff stockings for servicemen and women here at home as well as those currently deployed. Working with Towns4Troops, the student-athletes filled stockings with donated items including, candy, pens, notebooks and other items to help brighten the holidays for our troops.❤️🤍💙








If you are considering attending a 2-year, community college after graduation, do not miss this chance to complete your application for free during your lunch period. Admissions Representatives from each school will answer questions, waive the application fee and help you submit your application. It is that easy!
Each CC offers something special...maybe a major that is not at the other two campuses (for example aviation or auto mechanic), maybe it's dorming and living on campus. Whatever it is, talk to the admissions reps and apply!
You can apply to more than one, but you CANNOT miss this opportunity!
