REMINDER: All Monroe-Woodbury schools and offices will be closed on Monday, January 19, 2026, in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.
MWHS students in Ms. Bullaās Explore Teaching as a Profession program are introduced to careers in education. Through this program, many students learn that working in this field goes far beyond the traditional classroom teacher role. Education offers many paths, but all require commitment, empathy, and a heart for service, all characteristics of a Crusader! š
