William Monroe High

Summary:

William Monroe High is a public high school located in Stanardsville, Virginia, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 957. The school is part of the Rockingham County Public Schools district, which is ranked 100 out of 130 districts in Virginia and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

William Monroe High has a predominantly white student population, with 70.53% of students identifying as white in the 2022-2023 school year. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by SOL test scores, is generally below the state average and the performance of nearby schools, such as Community Lab School and East Rockingham High. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years, but it has generally been in the bottom half of Virginia high schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger in the 2023-2024 school year.

William Monroe High's performance on SOL tests varies significantly across different student subgroups, with African American and Hispanic students, as well as low-socioeconomic status students, performing much lower than their white counterparts. The school's high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients (67.29% in 2022-2023) suggests that it serves a predominantly low-income student population, which may contribute to the school's overall academic challenges. To address these issues, the school and district may need to implement comprehensive strategies that focus on improving instructional quality, providing targeted support for struggling students, and addressing the unique needs of the school's diverse student population.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
