The mission of the Monroe Athletic Booster Club (MABC) is to
facilitate and promote the activities of the Monroe High School's sports
programs. MABC will work with the coaches and administration to support the
athletic program by providing funds, boosting attendance, building morale
and providing an enjoyable healthy environment for the student-athletes.
MABC will be responsible for raising funds required to meet the club's
objectives.
Hornet Fans:
This year is the first time the Monroe Athletic
Booster Club is offering scholarships to senior athletes. The winners will
be announced during the Senior Award ceremony scheduled for Wednesday, May

changed the May meeting date to May 13 @ 7:00pm in the Media Center.
Officers will be elected May 13, so please mark your calendar and plan on
attending!
