Monroe County Community School Corp

The Monroe County Community School Corp district in Indiana is home to 21 schools, including 14 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 4 high schools, serving students from kindergarten through 12th grade. The district is ranked 100 out of 381 districts in the state and has an overall rating of 4 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger.

Several schools in the district stand out for their exceptional performance. Bloomington High School South is the top-performing high school, ranking 10th out of 431 high schools in Indiana and earning a 5-star rating. It boasts strong test scores and a high 92.1% four-year graduation rate. Another high-performing school is The Academy of Science & Entrepreneurship, a small high school that ranks 11th in the state and also earns a 5-star rating. At the elementary level, University Elementary School and Childs Elementary School are the highest-ranked, with exceptional test scores and 5-star ratings.

However, the data also reveals significant performance gaps between the highest-performing and lowest-performing schools in the district, both in terms of test scores and other metrics like chronic absenteeism and graduation rates. This suggests that the Monroe County Community School Corp may need to focus on addressing these disparities and ensuring more equitable outcomes across all schools, particularly by addressing the relationship between socioeconomic status and academic performance.
