Summary

Mt. Pleasant School is an elementary school located in Mt. Pleasant, Utah, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 557 students. It is part of the North Sanpete District, which is ranked 60 out of 93 districts in Utah and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Mt. Pleasant School has some strengths, such as its relatively strong performance in supporting low-income students, the school faces several challenges. It has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 19.2% to 33.5% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools like Fairview School (23.8%) and Ephraim School (23.8%). Additionally, the school's test scores in RISE/Mathematics, RISE/Science, and RISE/English Language Arts are generally below the North Sanpete District and Utah state averages across all grade levels.

Another area of concern is the school's relatively high student-teacher ratio, ranging from 23.4 to 25.6 over the past few years, which is higher than the nearby Fairview School (14.6) and Spring City School (13.3). The school also has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 48.42% to 56.91% over the past few years, which is higher than the nearby Fairview School (52.86%) and Ephraim School (51.9%).
