Welcome to October

It is hard to believe that we have completed over a month of school already. October is always a busy time at Monte. Our sports teams are starting league play with hopes of the playoffs in the future. We often find that our students begin to fall behind in school because the newness of a school year is over and the same routine is upon us. Remember to stay in touch with teachers if you have questions. I would also like to mention a few happenings for October that you might want to plan for.
