[edit] History

Monarch opened in September 1998 with a total of twenty-three students. In 2001 the school opened the Challenger Campus.

The school plans to move to a new campus at the intersection of Kempwood Drive and Rosefield Drive in Houston by August 2008 [2]; both the Challenge and Apprentice campuses will be moved to this campus.

[edit] Location

The school is made up of two campuses.

The first campus, Apprentice Campus, lies on grounds owned by the Houston Mennonite Church in the city of Hilshire Village; Monarch has no affiliation with the church.

The second campus, the Craig and Lee Williams Challenger Campus, is located in a Houston business park located north of Interstate 10.

Both campuses are outside of the 610 Loop and inside Beltway 8.

Monarch requires its students to wear school uniforms. Currently the uniform is a white dark green shirt with the Monarch symbol over the left breast, and beige pants or shorts.
