November 2020

2020 has been a difficult year, and for many, the need for donations is greater than ever. New Glarus National Honor Society and SkillsUSA are collaborating this year in the attempt to make at least one thing go right in 2020 - putting nutritional security in place for those who need it. There will be many ways to give!
Those living near New Glarus should receive a flyer on the twenty-first of November. For those that do, members will be by to pick up food donations on the November 28th. Just leave food for donations out around noon in bags for volunteers to pick up.

The Giving Tree will take place this year with a few changes. For the safety of all involved, we will be collecting cash, check and online donations only. Your generous donations will be welcome through the month of November and will help families in the Belleville area that could use assistance with gift purchases for their children.

As the holidays approach, we want to extend our sincere appreciation to everyone who has generously supported Monticello’s Christmas Stocking Fund over the years! We are incredibly grateful for the organizations and families who are in a position to continue their financial support, especially during this emotionally and financially challenging year! The community’s support of the Christmas Stocking Fund has been truly remarkable, and it is just one more reason why Monticello is such a wonderful place to live!

There have been many changes this school year, but at least one thing remains the same, Belleville High School Wildcats remain the 2020 Capitol Conference Academic Bowl Champs.
This year, a total of seven Capitol Conference schools competed in this event on Monday, November 2nd. Generally students from schools all over the conference travel to a host school for this competition. This year, Cambridge hosted a virtual event where students were in their school buildings but competed virtually with all the other schools.
