Summary:
Elementary schools in the Monroe School District include three schools serving grades PK–5: Northside Elementary (362 students), Parkside Elementary (342), and Abraham Lincoln Elementary (267), for 971 students total. The district ranks 146th of 432 statewide, at the 66th percentile with 3 stars, and all three elementary schools currently sit above that district-wide percentile.
Abraham Lincoln Elementary has the strongest current results: the highest 2025–26 proficiency average across reported tests (about 70.4%), the highest two-year math average (about 74.3%), and the lowest chronic absenteeism at 4.0%. Its rank rose from the 53rd to the 74th percentile, earning 4 stars, though its 3rd-grade ELA score of 36.36% is the lowest reported here. Northside Elementary has held 4 stars for three straight years and has the strongest rank history, but its percentile slipped from 81 to 71. Parkside Elementary improved the most, from 43rd percentile and 2 stars to 68th and 3 stars, yet has the lowest 2025–26 average (about 63.5%), the highest free/reduced lunch rate (50%), and the highest absenteeism (11.2%).
Math is a consistent strength: every school's two-year math average exceeds its ELA average, and 4th-grade math, social studies, and science are bright spots across all three. 3rd-grade ELA is the shared weak spot, averaging about 47.8% across the schools, below both district and state. Chronic absenteeism at all three is below the district (12.8%) and state (17.3%). Spending and class size do not track simply with results: Abraham Lincoln Elementary has the lowest per-student spending ($14,274) and largest classes, yet the best outcomes, while Parkside Elementary spends the most ($16,109) with the smallest classes. Year-to-year grade-level swings are large, so single-year changes should be read with caution.
