Alexandria-Monroe High School

Summary:

Alexandria-Monroe High School is a public high school serving around 750 students in grades 7-12 in Alexandria, Indiana, which is part of the Alexandria Community School Corporation. While the school has a significantly higher percentage of white students compared to nearby schools, it has struggled with lower graduation rates, higher chronic absenteeism, and weaker academic performance on standardized tests.

The school's 4-year graduation rate has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 76% to 94.1%, which is generally lower than the nearby high-performing schools like Yorktown High School (96.3%) and Daleville Junior-Senior High School (100%). Additionally, Alexandria-Monroe High School has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 22.4% to 24.9%, significantly higher than the nearby schools like Yorktown High School (13%) and Daleville Junior-Senior High School (15.6%).

Academically, the school's performance, as measured by ILEARN and SAT test scores, is generally lower than the state and nearby school averages. For example, in 2023-2024, only 36.84% of students were proficient or better in ILEARN/English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 41.8% for 7th grade and 42.6% for 8th grade. Similarly, the school's SAT/Mathematics proficiency rate for 11th grade was only 14.43%, compared to the state average of 31.14%. This trend is concerning, as the school's statewide ranking has declined over the years, from a high of 52 out of 379 Indiana high schools in 2013-2014 to a low of 350 out of 388 in 2020-2021.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
