Summary:
The Monument Middle school is the sole middle school located within the Rio Dell Elementary school district. Serving grades 6-8, Monument Middle has seen its statewide ranking decline over the past three years, now ranking 2440 out of 2777 California middle schools. With an enrollment of 98 students, the school's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is significantly below the state average across all grade levels and subject areas.
Monument Middle faces several challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate of 20.6% and a student population where 76.53% are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. The school's student-teacher ratio of 17.7 is slightly higher than the state average, which may contribute to the academic struggles. Compared to the state, only 22.78% of Monument Middle students were proficient or better in ELA, and just 12.35% were proficient or better in Math during the 2023-2024 school year.
Overall, the data suggests that Monument Middle is a struggling school that needs significant interventions and support to improve the educational outcomes of its students. The declining statewide ranking, low test scores, and high percentage of economically disadvantaged students indicate that the school faces significant challenges in providing a quality education to its community.
