GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Parent of a Kindergartener 2022/23. Monument has been an excellent environment for our learner. The teachers and staff are very engaged and work well together as a team. The students come from a mix of socioeconomic backgrounds, but the staff have a very good handle of the students and foster an excellent school community. Very happy being a part of Monument and will be sending our youngest there next year. A very well run safe small elementary school.
