Monroe Grade School

Summary:

Monroe Grade School is an elementary school located in Monroe, Oregon, serving grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 263 students. The school is part of the Monroe School District 1J, which is ranked 86 out of 140 districts in Oregon and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

According to the key insights, Monroe Grade School's academic performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better in OSAS (Oregon Statewide Assessment System) tests, is generally lower than the state average across various grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 3rd grade English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rate was 27.3%, compared to the state average of 39%. Similarly, the school's 8th grade Math proficiency rate was only 5%, compared to the state average of 26.4%. When compared to nearby schools, such as Territorial Elementary School, Monroe Grade School's academic performance is also generally lower.

The school's declining ranking and rating over the years, as well as the generally lower academic performance compared to the state and nearby schools, suggest that Monroe Grade School may be facing challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. The data also indicates disparities in performance between different student subgroups, such as female and male students, as well as a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic status (SES) backgrounds, which may contribute to the school's lower academic outcomes. Addressing these issues and implementing targeted interventions could be crucial for improving the school's performance and ensuring equitable educational opportunities for all students.

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.
