Summary

Triumph Academy is a public charter school in Monroe, MI, serving 777 students in grades K-8 and operating as its own district, with a strong 4-star rating that places it in the 78th percentile statewide.

One of the most impressive things about Triumph Academy is how well it supports students from low-income backgrounds. With 61-66% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, this group earns a 4-star rating and ranks in the 77th percentile statewide—far ahead of the school's overall 61st percentile rank. This means the school is especially effective at helping students who often face academic challenges in other districts. The school also shines in its middle school grades. While 3rd-grade scores hover near the state average, by 6th and 7th grade, students significantly outperform their peers across Michigan. For example, 7th-grade reading proficiency is 52.1% compared to the state's 38.4%, and 7th-grade math is 50.7% versus 33.3%. This upward trend suggests the school's approach builds momentum as students grow, creating a strong foundation for later success.

Compared to nearby options, Triumph Academy stands out. It outperforms schools in the Monroe Public Schools district, such as Hollywood Elementary (0 stars) and Custer Elementary (1 star), despite being just miles away. It also edges out the Airport Community Schools district, which earns 3 stars. What makes this even more remarkable is that Triumph Academy achieves these results while spending less per student ($12,635) than every comparable local school, and with a higher student-to-teacher ratio of 21.5. The school does have one area to watch—5th-grade math has dipped below state averages in recent years—but overall, with improving attendance (chronic absenteeism down from 46.5% to 17.7%) and strong academic gains, Triumph Academy offers a compelling option for families seeking a school that delivers results, especially for students who need extra support.

I love the small class size, monthly moral focus and uniforms. the only thing I would change is transportation. There are no buses to get them to or from not only school but also field trips and sporting events. Close Quote
