Masuk High School is a public high school in Monroe, Connecticut, United States, and includes grades 9 through 12. It is located on Connecticut Route 111 (Monroe Turnpike) in Monroe, between Old Coach Road and Pond View Road. Monroe Alternative High School is the only other Public High School in Monroe, which allows students a more intimate learning environment. The school has an indoor swimming pool.[1]
History
Since its founding in 1958, Masuk has cooperated with many other towns in the area. Students from Bridgeport, Connecticut and Oxford, Connecticut have attended Masuk in the past, although Oxford's last class of Masuk students graduated in June 2009.
The school mascot is a black panther.
In 1973, officials at the school allowed students to refuse to pledge allegiance to the American flag. The Connecticut Veterans of Foreign Wars objected to this decision.[2]
