Summary

Monrovia Middle School is a grades 6–8 public school in Monrovia, IN, a small-town community southwest of Indianapolis, serving 337 students as part of the Monroe-Gregg School District. In 2025–26 it ranked 356th of 486 Indiana middle schools — the 27th percentile, with a 1-star rating — while its district ranked 265th of 374 districts (29th percentile, 1 star). The school has been on a steady downward trend: it sat at the 53rd percentile with 3 stars in 2020–21 and has since fallen 26 percentile points.

Academically, 2025–26 ILEARN proficiency rates were 23.68% in ELA, 19.59% in math, and 28.46% in science, and Monrovia trails the state at every grade level shown. Sixth grade is the weakest point, at 16.26% in both ELA and math, versus state rates of 41.3% and 40.2%. Among nearby schools, Monrovia has the lowest ELA proficiency of the group. Center Grove Middle School Central (68.36% ELA, 63.12% math), Avon Middle School South (54.92%, 59.90%), and Plainfield Community Middle School (62.17%, 52.77%) score far higher. Notably, Paul Hadley Middle School about six miles away has a similar free/reduced lunch rate (45.06% vs. 46.59%), higher absenteeism, lower per-student spending, and larger classes — yet roughly double Monrovia's ELA and math rates.

Attendance is a genuine strength: chronic absenteeism was 9.0% in 2024–25, well below Indiana's 16.7%. Per-student spending rose about 38%, from $8,155 to $11,236, and the student-teacher ratio is a relatively low 13.3, so funding and class size don't appear to be the primary bottlenecks. The most urgent academic concerns are 6th-grade ELA and math and math across all grades, where the school trails even its own district.
