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.

My experience at Monarch High school has been great so far! There is great student connections and community as well as connections between students and teachers. The one thing I would like to see more of is College preparedness such as going over SAT topics in Math and English.

Monarch High School is a beautfiul school. The campus is one of a kind, and the library is breathtaking. However, the school does not deal with new students well, and the performing arts and music program is not great. The food in the cafeteria is unedible. But, I do really enjoy the coffee at the school coffee bar. Good school, just needs to improve on helping the transition of new students.

We’ve had a good first year. Monarch has a broad and varied curriculum with acceleration and challenge at the top level offered in BVSD, but also levels for different complexity and pacing which I think is great. They offer AP and concurrent enrollment, no IB. We’ve experienced truly wonderful teach...
