The Monroe-Woodbury Music Boosters Scholarship program seeks to reward those select students in grades 4-12 who demonstrate outstanding musicianship and success in their dedication to music. These students’ confidence and passion for learning music will be apparent in Chorus, Band, Orchestra, or any combination of these ensembles. Scholarships will be presented to winners during each school’s spring concerts. Scholarships are cash awards, with the amounts to be determined depending on the number of winners.

Superintendent Norman recently visited students in Mrs. Bulla's "Exploring Teaching as a Profession" class to share about his own career journey in education, experiences as superintendent and to answer questions. Developed in 2017-18 , this class is one of the SUNY Albany college credit opportunities offered at MWHS and gives students the opportunity to take a deeper dive into the roles of teachers in public education.
"My mom instilled in me that education was important. I watched my mother model teaching for years, I valued education and I have a passion for helping people. I decided I wanted to be a teacher. I chose a path of elementary education and it was one of the better choices of my life."
~ Dr. Norman




Congratulations to MWHS’s newest National Honor Society members! All of your hard work has paid off! Go Crusaders! 💜




Students from Mr. Vero's First Aid and CPR classes had a hands-on learning experience
when they traveled to Touro Medical College to tour the campus, shadow medical students, and learn about different medical career pathways. The highlight of the trip for many of the students was when they worked in the Human Anatomy laboratory. It was an experience they will never forget.


Congratulations to MWHS student Veronica Wolnicki who will compete at the Upstate Junior Science & Humanities Symposium (JSHS) competition hosted by the Rochester Institute for Technology on Feb. 1. This STEM competition, supported by the Department of Defense, challenges high school students to achieve and build skills that prepare them for college and careers. Participants perform original STEM research, showcase their findings in an oral presentation or research poster, and compete for both scholarships and invitations to represent the region at the National JSHS event. More than 1,000 high school students applied and only 48 oral presenters were selected for the in-person regional event. We’re so proud of you, Veronica!👏💜

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.

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!

Shout out to the kindhearted members of the MWHS World Language Honor Society who were among those from our school community who made blankets for Project Linus.

Now that's a Crusader heart! 💜🙏
