Great school, been here for a year. Students are great and so are the staff. Great school

School is focused on their state average scores, much to the detriment of the average student. If your child has problems or is not at the top of the academic chain, they may become the equivelant of background noise. Very "clicky" school. Other local schools and especially private schools, blow the curriculum offered at Monroe out of the water. I speak from experience of having 3 kids (2 honor roll) in addition to numerous friends graduating here.

This school has been awful! I am tired of the run around given by faculty! I have a very sick child that is being pulled out by doctors and they have even given them the run around! They don't care about the students! And as for the parents worried about the sports, its because it's too expensive for most families to play!

Although it has outperformed the State average on OGT (10th grade) it still does NOT address the needs of advanced students sufficiently. It is hostile concerning Post Secondary programs for students - not FOLLOWING the law. Although a few AP courses are supported, the quality of student participation in the National testing for College credit is still very weak compared to other schools; as well as lacking a depth of coursework. The Administration is still unfriendly to any involvement by parents (although the bylaws and administrative code state support for open participation by parents). Whomever posted criticism two years ago shows it has been an ongoing problem. In addtion, the financial state of the school is NOT stable and still needs closer examination and input from the public. With the exception of sports, the school tends to ignore the student performance, as an individual, stiving to see each student excel! I hope the new High School Principal (2013-14 fiscal year) and Superintendent (two years now) focus on advancing the overall school performance as well challenge those advance students whom need focus and yearly growth.
