Summary

Monhagen Middle School is a public middle school in Middletown, New York, serving 803 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Middletown City School District, which is ranked 793 out of 874 school districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Monhagen Middle School consistently performs below the state and district averages in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency on the New York State Assessments. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 33.95% in 6th grade ELA, 28.89% in 7th grade ELA, and 28.38% in 8th grade ELA, compared to the state averages of 50.86%, 50.99%, and 52.38%, respectively. The school also struggles to support the academic achievement of student subgroups, such as Special Education students, English Language Learners, and those from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

However, Monhagen Middle School performs better on Regents exams compared to the state and district averages, with proficiency rates of 81.36% in Algebra I and 72.86% in Living Environment in the 2024-2025 school year. Interestingly, the school's nearby counterpart, Middletown Twin Towers Middle School, which is also part of the Middletown City School District, outperforms Monhagen Middle School in most subject areas and grade levels. Despite the significant increase in per-student spending at Monhagen Middle School, from $14,117 in 2020-2021 to $35,269 in 2023-2024, the school's academic performance has not shown a corresponding improvement, raising questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources to support student learning.
