🥾🏕️Summer school camping trip 2026 took us to High Cliff State Park near Appleton on the shores of Lake Winnebago. Great weather, beautiful park, fantastic kids. A great time was had by all!

🎨🐴 This summer, several of our talented students have been hard at work painting murals throughout the school!

‼️Our Football Program Needs Your Help
❓Will Monticello Football Have a Team This Fall?
Right now, we're facing a difficult reality. Due to low participation numbers, there is a very real possibility that we may not have enough players to field a varsity football team this season.
🏈Football, just like all our high school athletics, is more than just a game. It is an extension of the classroom that teaches discipline, teamwork, perseverance, leadership, physical fitness, and pride in representing our school and community. It creates friendships that last a lifetime and memories our athletes will never forget.
If you are a student who has ever thought about playing football—or if you played in the past and are considering coming back—we need you. Every player matters, regardless of experience. Our coaches will safely teach you the game, support you, and help you become the best version of yourself.
Parents and community members, we ask for your help as well. Encourage the students in your lives to give football a chance. A single decision to join the team could make the difference between having a season and not having one.
💙Let's come together as a community to preserve a tradition that has meant so much to so many.
👉If you're interested in joining the team or have questions, please contact Head Football Coach Tyler Smith or Athletic Director Carolyn Schwartzlow as soon as possible.
Coach Smith ~ smithtyl@monticello.k12.wi.us or 608-535-9380
Carolyn ~ schwacar@monticello.k12.wi.us or 608-214-3417
The team will be having an evening camp on Saturday, July 25th at 4pm at the High School Football field. All interested players should plan to attend and/or will need to contact Coach Smith or AD Carolyn prior to July 25th. If after this date, we do not have a commitment from enough players to safely field a team, the decision will be made to cancel our varsity season.
It's not too late to become part of something bigger than yourself and have a season of significance.
