Transgender Miss San Francisco to make history at pageant for state title

[DemBlue76]

Monroe is the first transgender woman in the Miss San Francisco pageant's 99 year history. The crown and sash are more than just accessories.

"Every time I put on the sash, the weight of it reminds me of the weight of my job; of the responsibility I have to make a difference for young children," Monroe said.

As part of her Miss San Francisco duties, Monroe visits a different elementary school in the city almost every day. CBS News Bay Area followed along as she read a book called "Sparkle Boy" to the 4th grade class at Tenderloin Community School.
