April 8, 2024 Calamity Day

Monroe Local Schools will observe a calamity day on Monday, April 8, 2024 due to the historically significant solar eclipse that will take place across Ohio and our region. 

There will be no school for students or staff on this day and other campus activities may be altered as well.

Please note that any existing versions of the 2023-24 district calendar you may have previously saved or printed are now out of date. The most up-to-date version can be found by clicking here.

The total eclipse is set to occur shortly after 3:00 p.m. on April 8 and is expected to draw large numbers of spectators to our area that could place additional demands on emergency services, local utilities and infrastructure. This could result in a safety issue at a time when students, families and staff would have been traveling to and from school for the day.

For these reasons we believe that canceling school on April 8, 2024 is in the best interest of our students, families and staff members. We hope that by providing this information well in advance it allows time for you to plan accordingly.
