Mount Pleasant Independent School District (Isd)

The Mount Pleasant Independent School District (ISD) in Texas operates 8 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 2 high schools, serving a diverse student population across the district. While the district as a whole is ranked in the top quarter of Texas districts, there is significant variation in the performance of individual schools, with Annie Sims Elementary consistently ranking in the top 20% of Texas elementary schools and E.C. Brice Elementary and Vivian Fowler Elementary ranking in the bottom half of the state.

The district's main high school, Mount Pleasant High School, stands out with a strong 97.8% four-year graduation rate and solid performance on end-of-course exams, exceeding the state average in several subjects. However, the data also reveals challenges in math and science proficiency across multiple grade levels and schools, suggesting potential areas for improvement in the district's curriculum and instruction.

Economically, the schools in the Mount Pleasant ISD face significant challenges, with high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 76-89%. This indicates a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student populations, and the district may need to focus on addressing the needs of its most vulnerable students to ensure equitable educational opportunities.
