Mount Pleasant Middle School's academic performance is mixed, with English Language Arts proficiency rates slightly above the state average, but Mathematics and Science proficiency rates below the state average, particularly in 6th and 7th grade Mathematics. The school is ranked 239 out of 337 Iowa middle schools and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing below average compared to other middle schools in the state. The school's student-teacher ratio of 12.7 is slightly lower than the state average, and its per-student spending for the 2018-2019 school year was $12,356.
The data suggests that Mount Pleasant Middle School faces challenges in improving its academic outcomes, particularly in Mathematics and Science. The school's demographic diversity and high percentage of students from low-income families may also contribute to its performance. To address these issues, the school and district may need to implement targeted interventions, professional development for teachers, and additional support for students to improve academic outcomes and overall school quality.
