Summary:
The city of Monrovia, Indiana is home to three schools serving students from elementary through high school: Monrovia Elementary School, Monrovia High School, and Monrovia Middle School. These schools, part of the Monroe-Gregg School District, show a mix of strengths and areas for improvement based on factors like academic performance, attendance, and socioeconomic indicators.
Among the standout schools, Monrovia Middle School stands out with its relatively small enrollment, lower student-teacher ratio, and stronger performance in English Language Arts compared to state averages. Monrovia High School also shows promise, with a higher 4-year graduation rate and better SAT performance in Evidence-based Reading and Writing than the district average.
However, the data reveals persistent academic challenges across the district, with proficiency rates in ILEARN English Language Arts and Math generally below state averages, particularly in Math. Additionally, higher chronic absenteeism rates at the middle and high school levels may be an area of concern. The district's predominantly white student population and socioeconomic disparities, such as varying free/reduced-price lunch eligibility and per-student spending, also warrant further examination to address these systemic issues and support student success.
