Summary:

The Monroe Preparatory Academy is the only school in the Monroe Preparatory Academy district in Sandusky, Ohio, serving 204 students in grades K–8 and classified as an elementary school. Because it is the sole school in this area, there are no local peer schools to compare it against; the most useful benchmarks are Ohio state averages, the school's own prior-year results, and its rank history.

Academically, results are mixed but mostly below the state. In 2025–2026, 6th grade math was the standout at 56.3% proficient, essentially matching Ohio's 56.2%. 4th grade math also improved sharply, from 27.3% to 52.2%, and 6th grade math rose from 40.9% to 56.3%. Elsewhere, gaps are wide: 3rd grade ELA was 35.0% versus 63.4% statewide, a 28.4-point gap, and 7th grade math was 28.6% versus 48.6%. Every tested ELA grade in 2025–2026 fell at least 15.1 points below the state average. Science also lagged, with 5th grade at 47.4% versus 62.7%. The school's state rank slipped from 1,068 out of 1,577 (32nd percentile, 2 stars) in 2023–2024 to 1,123 out of 1,560 (28th percentile, 1 star) in 2025–2026, keeping it in the bottom third of ranked Ohio schools.

Chronic absenteeism stands at 40.3% for 2025–2026 — roughly 2 in 5 students — which is high in absolute terms, though no state comparison is provided. The student–teacher ratio is 15.6 for 2024–2025, implying roughly 13 teachers. Other context is thin: free/reduced lunch data is not provided, and per-student spending of $7,238 dates back to 2018–2019. Year-over-year comparisons are also complicated because 2024–2025 included 8th grade tests, while 2025–2026 included 7th grade instead.
