History

Monroe Public Schools is rooted in a union school district established in 1858. That year, a central school building was built in town that held all grades. In 1888, a separate high school building was built. [5] In 1912, the district built a new high school on the block between Cass, Third, Fourth, and Harrison Streets. That school was replaced in 1928 with a new building, which became known as Monroe Middle School in 1975 with the opening of the current high school. The 1912 high school became Boyd Elementary in 1928, and it was demolished in 1971. [6]
