Summary:

The Monrovia Unified school district consists of ten public schools serving grades K-12 in the area, with an overall performance ranking above the California state average.

Performance varies significantly across schools. Top performers include Mayflower Elementary and Plymouth Elementary, which excel in math, and Clifton Middle, the district's highest-ranked school. Monrovia High also stands out with a very high graduation rate. In contrast, Canyon Oaks High faces substantial challenges, including high chronic absenteeism and low proficiency rates, while Santa Fe Computer Science Magnet underperforms compared to other middle schools in the district.

Key findings show the district outperforms the state in English and math, but a notable gap exists in science performance at the high school level. Interestingly, schools with the highest per-student spending, like Mountain Park and Canyon Oaks High, have the lowest academic outcomes, suggesting factors beyond funding impact success. Chronic absenteeism is also strongly correlated with lower performance across schools.
