Monroe Elementary School once again participated in the 2025 Great Kindness Challenge this week... To celebrate, students showed that kindness is their superpower!
We honored our friends at Locust Corner, NRMS, NRHS, the Transportation Department, and the central office. We also took time to show our gratitude by honoring the real-life superheroes in our community including Deputy Vetter, our SRO at Monroe, and all of our friends at Monroe Township Fire & EMS.
Students participated in a daily kindness challenge each day this week and have pledged to pay it forward each and every day at school, at home, and throughout our community!
You can also participate by spreading the kindness when you visit one of our local community partners... Our kind messages can be found at our local restaurants including Snappy Tomato Pizza, Papa John's, Buck's, the Front Street Cafe, the Green Kayak, and El Barrill.
Our students are SUPER and kindness really is one of their many superpowers!
