Wow! Hats off to Mr. Rob Sayre, Mr. Derek Dinehart, Mr. Donnie Dinehart, and Mrs. Chasin Wells for their remarkable dedication outside and inside of Alexandria Monroe Elementary, even on the hottest days of summer. They continue to work selflessly on the outside of our building for the benefit of our students, families and staff! Inside the building, another amazing crew is preparing classrooms and so much more for our students. Our summer crew is truly exceptional!



Happy reading, Tigers! Today was an amazing day for our Tigers to visit the Bookmobile and discover a new book or more! The students were also treated to a delicious popsicle. Special thank you to our AMES volunteers! 📚🐅
