MONROE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Monroe Elementary School is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the RSU 03/MSAD 03 school district, located in Monroe, ME with about 63 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 5th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 5 teachers, Monroe Elementary School has a student/teacher ratio of about 12:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Monroe Elementary School is a small, community-oriented public school located in the town of Monroe, Maine. Situated at 36 West Main Street, the school serves as a local hub for primary education, catering to students in the surrounding rural community.

The school is part of a larger regional educational framework, operating within a district dedicated to meeting the diverse needs of its student body while maintaining a connection to the local heritage of Monroe. Because of its location in a small, tight-knit town, the school often benefits from high levels of parental involvement and a collaborative atmosphere. It remains a focal point for the town, striving to balance modern educational standards with the personal, attentive approach characteristic of rural Maine schooling.
