Monroe Middle School

The school has very great teachers and a great principal. The academics are challenging but not most of the students are motivated enough. The staff is great but they can be better. The school offers homework help and lots of after school programs. I do see some inappropriate actions like public display of affection and hear a lot of cussing with the students. The teachers really do want to help the students but the less intelligent students aren't motivated enough to learn.

I am really happy with my choice to send my child to Monroe. My daughter has thrived at the school. She is on the honor roll. The teachers are open to communication and get back to me right away. They stay after school to help children who need it. They offer sports, band and theatre. The principal is really great she wants to be there and make a difference. She is approchable and willing to listen. She wants what's best for her students and the school.

I love monroe! I am in 6th grade and i was also at monroe for fifth grade. The teachers at monroe are just so caring and supportive of every student there attending at monroe. The principal, the VP, they all care. Even though we may have uniforms, it doesnt rally matter anymore. Thats because of everything else the school is doing for all us students, we dont really care if we have uniform.

I am a Monroe parent and the teachers care. My son is in the 7th grade and the responsibility is definitely on his shoulders to turn in his work or face the consequences. The teachers communicate beautifully and want to teach to kids that are ready to learn and to families that care. I am not sure many of the parents are terribly motivated to participate or communicate with the teachers so there could be some motivation issues on both the students and teachers sides. He has attended since the 6th grade and wants to go to Leigh H.S. (not Del Mar).
