    3rd Grade Reading Results - Major Improvement!

    Thanks to the hard work of our school administrators, reading specialists, and teachers at Monroe County Board of Education, 91% of our 3rd graders are on or above grade level in reading this year. This is a 17% increase from Spring 2023. We are in line with the state...Way to go, Monroe!!
    Also, the state lowered the cut score by 17 points ( from 452 to 435) for 3rd graders to be considered on or above grade level. Monroe County 3rd graders would have been at 84% in Spring 2024 if the cut score had remained at 452, which is still a 10% increase from Spring 2023. Again, we are moving in the right direction.
    Let's GO MONROE!!

    MCBOE Students Attend Space Camp

    Twenty-two students in  sixth and seventh grades  from Monroe County Board of Education recently attended Space Camp at the Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, AL during their week of Spring Break. Our students were able to launch rockets, work with teammates on a Space Mission, solve design challenges, and travel to the edges of the Universe in a live planetarium show at this world famous STEM enrichment program.
    Additionally, students graduated from Space Camp at the conclusion of the week.  Students on Team IO from Monroe County won the "Outstanding Team Award".  The school system's curriculum leader and teachers worked collaboratively with Space Camp staff to plan and organize this rewarding experience for its students.
    Monroe County Board of Education is grateful for the vision of Representative Anthony Daniels, who serves as minority leader in the state House of Representatives. Thanks to his vision, our students had an experience of a lifetime where they learned valuable leadership skills. School system leaders are proud of its students for their accomplishments while in Huntsville. Pictured below are Team IO and Team Europa from Monroe County Board of Education.
