Summary

Mount Pleasant High School in Mount Pleasant, TX, serves 1,557 students in grades 9-12 and is part of the Mount Pleasant Independent School District (Isd), a 4-star district. The school has a consistent 3-star rating and stands out for its exceptionally high graduation rate of 98% and a dropout rate near 0%, which is better than nearby schools like Pewitt High School (94.9% graduation) and Mt Vernon High School (95.5% graduation). This strong commitment to keeping students on track is a key strength, especially given that about 75-80% of students come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

One of the school's most notable achievements is its exceptional support for English Language Learners (ELL), ranking in the 89th percentile statewide—far above its overall 59th percentile ranking. The school also performs well with low socio-economic status students, ranking in the 70th percentile, showing it effectively helps students overcome challenges related to poverty. However, performance varies by subject: while students meet or exceed state averages in English I & II and Biology, U.S. History is a consistent weakness, with only 65.5% proficient compared to the state average of 70.2%. For context, nearby Chapel Hill High School, just 7.5 miles away, ranks in the 84th percentile and significantly outperforms in English I (83.6% vs. 58.2% proficient) and English II (85.1% vs. 65.1% proficient), though it serves a smaller, less economically disadvantaged student body.

Despite spending less per student ($10,550) than many nearby schools like Daingerfield High School ($13,884), Mount Pleasant High School maintains a favorable student-teacher ratio of 12:1, suggesting efficient resource allocation for smaller class sizes. The school saw a dramatic improvement during the pandemic, jumping to the 77th percentile, but has since plateaued at its current 59th percentile. An area for improvement is its support for multi-racial students, who rank in the 34th percentile, a sharp contrast to the school's overall performance. Overall, Mount Pleasant High School is a stable, supportive environment with standout programs for English learners and a strong focus on graduation, though it has room to grow in specific subjects and for certain student groups.
