The largest academic gaps between the schools were in sixth- and seventh-grade English language arts, sixth-grade mathematics, and sixth- and seventh-grade science. Overall, Mountain Green offers the stronger and more consistent academic profile, while Morgan shows encouraging attendance and science trends that could support future improvement.
