In 2025–2026, math proficiency averages about 56.2%, above the state average of about 53.7%; ELA averages about 53.6%, essentially at or slightly below the state’s about 54.0%. Third grade is especially strong: ELA is 75% vs. the state’s 52.08%, and math is 79.31% vs. 54.75%. Fourth grade math is 66.67%, 13.8 points above the state, while fourth grade science rose from 38.89% to 62.5% and social studies rose from 55.56% to 66.67%, both now above state averages.

Cohort patterns suggest uneven progress—for example, 2024–2025 third graders dropped in ELA and math as fourth graders—so families should view these as patterns to monitor rather than definitive trends. Overall, Mill Creek Academy is a small PK–7 school with strong early-grade math, improving science/social studies, below-state absenteeism, and rising rank, but with real gaps in 5th–7th grade ELA and 5th–6th grade math.
