William Monroe Middle

Summary:

William Monroe Middle is a public middle school located in Stanardsville, Virginia, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 675 students. The school is part of the Greene County Public Schools district, which is ranked 100 out of 130 districts in Virginia and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

William Monroe Middle has a significantly higher percentage of white students (68.15%) compared to nearby schools like Buford Middle in Charlottesville, which has a much lower percentage of white students (35.8%). The school performs relatively well in certain subject areas like Algebra I and Geometry, but struggles in Mathematics and English Reading, where proficiency rates are significantly lower than the state average. Additionally, William Monroe Middle has a high percentage of students (67.11%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which is much higher than some nearby schools like Lakeside Middle (23%) and Elkton Middle (44.05%).

William Monroe Middle's statewide ranking has been steadily declining over the past several years, from a high of 231 out of 412 Virginia middle schools in 2014-2015 to a low of 309 out of 417 in 2023-2024. The school struggles the most with its low-socioeconomic status (SES) students, who rank in the bottom 10% of Virginia middle schools. Compared to nearby middle schools like Lakeside Middle, which is part of the Albemarle County Public Schools district, William Monroe Middle generally underperforms in academic measures, such as test scores and statewide rankings. This suggests that the school may be underfunded and lacking in resources compared to higher-performing schools in the region, which could be a contributing factor to the school's academic challenges.

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.
