Monticello High School is an accredited public high school located in the rural community of Monticello, Arkansas, United States. The school provides comprehensive secondary education for approximately 600 students each year in grades 9 through 12. It is one of two public high schools in Drew County, Arkansas and the only high school administered by the Monticello School District.

Academics

Monticello High School is accredited by the Arkansas Department of Education (ADE) and is accredited as a charter member since 1924 of AdvancED (formerly North Central Association).[3] The assumed course of study follows the Smart Core curriculum developed by the ADE, which requires students to complete 22 units prior to graduation. Students complete regular (core and elective) and career focus coursework and exams and may take Advanced Placement (AP) courses and exams with the opportunity to receive college credit. Students completing at least 24 units of credit may be eligible for recognition as Honor Diploma, Honor Graduate, and Distinguished Honor Graduate, based on progressively higher grade point average (GPA) scores. The district and high school are members of the Southeast Arkansas (SEARK) Education Service Cooperative.

Monticello High School was listed unranked for its academic programs in the Best High Schools 2012 report by U.S. News & World Report.[1]

Extracurricular activities

The Monticello High School mascot and athletic emblem are the Billies (referring to the Billy goat) with blue and white serving as the school colors.[4]

Athletics

The Billies participate in football, golf (boys/girls), cross country (boys/girls), speech, debate, basketball (boys/girls), cheer, dance, baseball, softball, tennis (boys/girls), and track and field (boys/girls).[4][5]
