The James Monroe High School Class of 2024 participated in our annual College Decision Day! We wish them the best of luck in all of their future endeavors. PART 2











James Monroe High School held a “Pup” Rally on May 7th to introduce Maverick to his new family. Governor Justice, First Lady Cathy Justice, and Baby Dog were there to present Maverick to the staff and students at James Monroe. The Communities in Schools program along with the Friends with Paws program place therapy dogs into schools. Maverick has been a God-send. He brings smiles to everyone’s faces and provides comfort, support, and love.
