Monroe Consolidated School offers a small-school setting with a reported student-teacher ratio of 6.9 to 1, which may allow for close attention, small-group instruction, and individualized support. Current mathematics performance is close to the New Hampshire average overall, with 43% of students proficient compared with 44% statewide. Fifth-grade mathematics is a notable strength: 56% of students were proficient, compared with 43% statewide.

Parents should be aware that academic results have varied considerably from year to year. Reading proficiency was 50%, five points below the state average, and fifth-grade reading was 44%, compared with 58% statewide. Science is the greatest current concern: 26% of students were proficient overall, compared with 38% statewide, and fifth-grade science was 31%. Science proficiency had been 55% the previous year, so the sharp decline may reflect a small tested group or a broader instructional issue that deserves further review. The school’s ranking rose to the 53rd percentile in 2024-2025 before falling to the 40th percentile in 2025-2026, when it received two stars. Families considering the school may want to ask about recent science and reading improvement plans, grade-level results, and how the school uses its small size to support students.
