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.

Overall, I had a great experience at at Monroe High School. I excelled academically and had some teachers that really inspired me, especially my accounting teacher. She gave us real world experiences and supported us while competing at Business Professionals of America competitions. The school offers a wide variety of CTE options and many athletic and club opportunities.
