For Native American Heritage Month, Monroe students played 'Pebble Patterns' and 'Keeper of the Fire'. The games were used to celebrate the Tongva People, who lived in Monrovia many years ago. Native American children would play these games to improve their memory, stealth and survival skills. As a dual-emersion school, Monroe Principal Amanda Noriega said this is one way to immerse students into other cultures.

    Monroe Elementary School raised an incredible amount of $26,000 dollars through this annual
    event. Principal Amanda Noriega promised to go through a slip-n-slide, covered in chocolate
    sauce and whipped cream, if the school was able to go beyond the $20,000 mark. Since they
    beat that number, she honored that promise and slid through the sundae toppings to celebrate
    her students' work.

    Monrovia Unified would like to thank everyone who contributed to this fundraiser. Our students were only able to raise all that money with help from our community.
