On Monday, October 20, 2025, a mock disaster drill will take place at James Monroe High School.

This training exercise is part of our district's ongoing commitment to emergency preparedness and student safety. During the drill, you may see an increased presence of emergency vehicles and personnel on and around the school campus. Please know that this is a scheduled and controlled exercise—there is no cause for concern.

These drills allow our schools, first responders, and community partners to practice coordinated response procedures, ensuring we are well-prepared for a real emergency.

We appreciate your understanding, cooperation, and continued support as we work together to ensure the safety of our schools.

If you have any questions, please contact the Monroe County Schools district office.

Every day matters. Regular attendance is very important to the academic progress of students. There is a direct relation between a student's daily school attendance and academic performance, work habits, and graduation. In the case your child does miss school, Monroe County Schools now has a convenient online form for submitting attendance excuses. The QR code on the calendar magnet sent home will direct you to the page https://www.boe.monroe.k12.wv.us/forms for turning these in to your child's school. You will need to enter your child's full WVEIS lunch number in order to submit the excuse. If you aren't sure of what that number is, please contact the school, and they can provide it for you.
