Announcements
- It’s that time of year Class of 2027! The Yearbook Staff need your senior photo and baby photo. Please email them to emily.marjoua@monticello.k12.ia.us or bring the photos to the office or Art room ASAP. If you haven’t gotten your senior photos taken yet, set your appointment now. A free option is to use the Halverson’s school picture day or picture retake day. Failure to use Halverson’s or submit a senior photo to Mrs. Marjoua BEFORE WINTER BREAK will result in the use of your junior year school photo :/
2026 Yearbooks are still available in the front office for purchase!! There are a limited number of copies left for purchase – so dust off 80 bucks and get one before they’re gone.
- Your Panther Positive tickets will expire on October 26th! Check out your Google Classroom for the form to redeem your tickets. After October 26th the tickets will be a new color.

Silver Service Opportunities
- Volunteers Needed: Want to work a fun event while earning silver service hours? We need a few volunteers to help at the registration desk and handing out bags at the STEM Family Festival next Thursday, October 8. The registration desk will include collecting registration forms that are already complete or helping those who have not completed the form complete it on an iPad or chromebook. To hand out bags, you only need to give each student who attends a bag of goodies when the walk in. We have 2 shifts available and each shift is only 1 1/2 hours long. Sign up here or Contact Robyn Ponder for more details.
