Best Public Schools in Mount Pleasant, MI


Summary:

The city of Mount Pleasant, Michigan is home to a diverse array of 12 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 4 high schools, and no alternative schools. These schools serve students across various grade levels and socioeconomic backgrounds, with notable standouts and unique challenges within the district.

Among the top-performing schools in the area is Beal City High School, which consistently ranks among the best in the state with its 4 or 5-star rating, high proficiency rates on state assessments, and an impressive 89.5% four-year graduation rate. Another standout is Mt Pleasant Senior High School, the largest high school in the district, with a 4-star rating and strong performance on state assessments. The Renaissance Public School Academy, a public charter school serving grades K-8, has also shown solid performance on state assessments, particularly in the 3rd-7th grade levels, despite serving a higher percentage of minority and low-income students compared to other schools in the district.

However, the data also reveals significant challenges within the district, such as the struggles faced by WAY Oasis, the district's virtual high school, which has extremely low graduation rates, high dropout rates, and poor performance on state assessments. Additionally, the wide range in free/reduced lunch rates, from 31.49% at Beal City High School to 79.75% at Odyssey MiddleHigh School, indicates significant socioeconomic disparities within the Mt. Pleasant City School District, which likely contribute to the performance gaps observed between schools.
