Summary

Monrovia Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in Monrovia, Indiana, which is part of the Monroe-Gregg School District. With 328 students, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Indiana middle schools over the past 10 years, with a ranking between 228-366 out of 470-494 schools.

Monrovia Middle School faces several challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, which have risen from 10.3% in 2021-2022 to 19.2% in 2022-2023, significantly higher than the state and district averages. The school's test scores are also consistently below state and district averages across all grade levels and subjects, with only 28.22% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts in 2024-2025, compared to 28.51% for the district and 40.5-42.7% statewide. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 37.57% to 49.39% over the past few years, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Avon Middle School South and Plainfield Community Middle School, Monrovia Middle School is underperforming, with significantly higher test scores and lower chronic absenteeism rates at these neighboring schools. Despite the school's consistent ranking in the bottom half of Indiana middle schools, there does not appear to be a clear trend of improvement over the past 10 years, suggesting that the school may need to implement significant interventions and strategies to address the underlying issues and improve student outcomes.
