| History and Philosophy: | The mission of the Monarch School is to develop the potential of each child by creating a unique educational and social environment. The Monarch School traces its roots back more than 30 years when dedicated volunteers provided recreational and social opportunities to children with multiple challenges. In 1974 formal status as a nonprofit organization was sought and received. Today 65+ teachers, therapists, educational technicians, and administrative staff serve children from town and cities in NH and Maine. | |||||||||||||||
