Monroe Elementary School Partnership
Monroe Elementary School Partnership
About our partnership
Our Temple Israel community comes together each school year in partnership with Monroe Elementary (located in South St. Louis) to support its students in preschool - 5th grade.
We hold item collections and offer volunteer and donation opportunities each month throughout the school year with the overall goal of providing attention, care, and lots of celebration for students and faculty who greatly need our support.
Join us, and let's make a huge difference for the St. Louis community, together!
We're here to help. Learn more about our partnership with Monroe Elementary and how you can help by reaching out to monroe@ti-stl.org.
