United Intermediate School

Public Grades 4-6
Summary

United Intermediate School serves 198 students in grades 4–6 in Monmouth, Illinois. Its 2025–2026 results are generally stronger than state averages, though chronic absenteeism is high at 31%. The most useful nearby comparison is Central Intermediate School, which serves the same grades. The clearest takeaway is that United outperformed Central in every reported grade of ELA and math, with especially large fifth-grade advantages: 35 points in ELA and 23 points in math.

United is above the state in all three reported subject comparisons: all-grades ELA proficiency is 64%, 8 points above the state; math is 46%, 6 points above; and fifth-grade science is 61%, 13 points above. Science is also a standout against Central: 61% of United fifth graders were proficient, compared with 29% at Central. United’s ELA is a little below its district’s all-grades result—64% versus 65%—while its math result is 7 points higher. Within United, grade 6 math is the relative soft spot: proficiency is 37%, just 1 point above the state grade-level result. Attendance is another concern: chronic absenteeism is 31%, 4 points above the district and 7 points above the state, tied for the highest rate among nearby schools with data.

Available results provide a snapshot, not a trend: United has test and absenteeism data for only 2025–2026, so changes over time cannot be established. Its 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 11.4, below the nearby-school average of 12.2 but not the lowest. In 2024–2025, 44% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, the lowest reported share among nearby schools with the same measure; their figures range from 49.6% to 79.0%. SchoolDigger rank and star ratings were not provided for United; four nearby schools with data range from the 7th to the 24th percentile and have 0 or 1 star.
