Description: Monarch provides students with basic necessities including access to shower and laundry facilities, hygiene kits, clothing and shoes, daily meals and snacks, and backpacks and school supplies. Through our on-campus Health Clinic students have access to health care including medical, dental and vision care. We provide behavioral and mental health care through our Student Support Center, where Monarch’s team works with our students and their families to empower them to feel safe and make healthy choices. Our Health and Wellness curriculum includes instruction in yoga, dance, physical education, gardening, cooking, and healthy eating. In all of our programs we have drawn from best practices in the field of education including restorative, strength-based and trauma-informed care.
