Summary:
The Monroe Public Schools district in Michigan is home to 5 elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through 5th grade. The data reveals a mix of academic performance across these schools, with a few standouts but also significant challenges compared to state averages.
Raisinville School and Manor Elementary School emerge as the top performers, consistently exceeding district and state averages on standardized test scores. For example, in 2024-2025, 32.9% of 3rd graders at Raisinville were proficient in ELA, compared to 25.5% for the district and 38.9% for the state. Manor Elementary also had strong 5th grade ELA proficiency at 40%, outpacing the district's 27.5% and the state's 44.4%.
However, the majority of Monroe Public Schools' elementary campuses struggle academically, with test scores well below state averages across multiple grade levels and subjects. Chronic absenteeism is also a significant issue, with all 5 schools reporting rates of 29.5% in 2023-2024, far higher than the state average. The data suggests a correlation between socioeconomic status and academic performance, as the schools with the highest free/reduced lunch rates tend to have the lowest test scores.
