Summary

Monroeville Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-4 in Monroeville, Alabama, with 410 students. The school is part of the Monroe County School District, which is ranked 99 out of 135 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Monroeville Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Alabama elementary schools over the past several years, with a ranking between 460 and 586 out of around 680-690 schools. The school has maintained a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past decade, with a brief period of a 2-star rating in 2017-2018 and a 3-star rating in 2016-2017. Academically, the school significantly underperforms the state and county averages on standardized test scores across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, only 15.25% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in math, compared to 30.89% in the county and 45.47% statewide.

Monroeville Elementary also faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 14.8% to 27.0% over the past few years, and a very high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 78.54% to 81.44%. Additionally, the school's spending per student, at $10,070 in 2018-2019, is lower than the state average, which may contribute to its academic underperformance. The nearby schools in the Conecuh County School District also appear to be low-performing, suggesting that students in this region may have limited access to high-quality educational opportunities.
