Our Athletic Boosters are an incredible support to all of our athletic programs.  For years this group has given time and funding to our athletic programs and have always been run on parent volunteer support. The biggest fundraiser for the Athletic Boosters each year is running the concession stands for our high school games. The number of volunteers for the concession stand is down and they need your help.  Working in the concession stand can be a fun way to meet other people and to help contribute to our school and sports programs. 
If you, or your high school aged student, is interested in volunteering some time in one of our concession stands this year, please fill out this ​survey and the Athletic Boosters will be in contact with you.  High school students can earn silver service hours for their participation. If you have students that participate in athletics, it is a great way for you to give back to the school and those programs in a fun way.
Thanks for your consideration!
Brian Jaeger, Superintendent

Admission prices for high school events have changed for the upcoming school year. It will now cost $6 to get in to HS events for all students, adults, and senior citizens. This was a decision made by the River Valley Conference.
The River Valley Conference teams also changed a little. North Cedar has left our conference and Dyersville Beckman and Maquoketa have joined.
GO PANTHERS!

I am sending this email to be proactive in addressing an issue that has made an appearance in our school district recently.  You may or may not know that the phrase, “Let’s Go Brandon” has become a part of our pop culture over the last few weeks.  The phrase comes from an interview with a NASCAR driver in which the reporter thought the crowd was chanting, “Let’s Go Brandon” in the background.  The crowd was actually chanting, “F*** Joe Biden”.  It is easy information to find online and common knowledge that the phrase “Let’s Go Brandon” displayed on anything means, “F*** Joe Biden”.  This phrase is not appropriate at school, just as any inappropriate language or other displays of inappropriate meanings are not allowed at school.  
To be very clear, this is not a political statement.  Students are allowed to wear clothing or display phrases that support any political party or candidate.  They just can't wear clothing with something on it that is inappropriate for school and disruptive to the educational program.  Students wearing something with this phrase on it will be asked to change clothes, turn it inside out, or wear something over it, before returning to class.  Any repeated offenses will be considered a defiance of authority and the student will receive school consequences.
Thank you very much for your understanding and cooperation.
Dr. Brian Jaeger, Superintendent

Monticello Community School District
At the Board meeting on Monday night, the Board approved the appointment of Mr. Nick Schauf as High School Principal starting July 1, 2021. We are very excited to have him join our Panther family! Here is a little note from him:

I am really excited about joining Panther Nation. My family consists of my very talented wife Jenni who is also an educator and coach. We have three children: Conley who is currently in 7th grade, Landry in 4th grade, and Elise in 2nd grade. We are a very active family that encourages our kids to participate in many things. I grew up in Maquoketa and played against Monticello during high school back in the Big Bend days. My wife graduated from Tipton, so we are both familiar with the area. We look forward to raising our kids in a similar environment that we both grew up in. I enjoy cheering on the Bears, Cubs, Iowa Hawkeyes, and Duke Blue Devils.

Please welcome our new Middle School Principal, Todd Werner! Todd started in his new role yesterday. See his note below. I am very excited to be joining the Monticello Team and look forward to getting started. I was the 7-12 Principal at Belle Plaine for 7 years and prior to that I was the 7-12 Principal at WACO for four years. Before going into Administration I was a Physical Education teacher in the Linn-Mar School District at Wilkins Elementary for nine years and also spent time as a physical education and social studies teacher at Northeast Hamilton for four years and as a teacher at Wellsburg-Steamboat Rock to start my career. Throughout my career I’ve also served as a Head Boys Basketball coach and Head Girls Basketball Coach at the high school level and also served as an Assistant Women's Basketball Coach at Coe College. I’ve also coached track, golf, and football. Outside school, I spend as much time as possible doing outdoor activities like golf, hunting, and fishing. Although I may lack true skill and knowledge, I also enjoy do it yourself projects around the home. In the little remaining time I have, I also have worked as a radio broadcaster for high school basketball and football. I even had the privilege of traveling with the Iowa Hawkeye Women’s Basketball team as the radio color analyst a few years ago. My wife Paula and I have three kids; Colin (16), Brent (14), and a daughter Kendall (11) who are each very active and we love supporting them in all their activities. I look forward to meeting everyone very soon! Todd

The elementary students have been working hard at home during online learning but have also been very creative. Students were given the option to create a book character out of a toilet paper tube and craft supplies at home. Check out this slideshow with photos of some great creations that were submitted.  Click HERE to view the slideshow photos.
