What Parents Should Know

With a student-teacher ratio of 2.2:1, Mount Pleasant Academy offers a notably low ratio compared to the national average. This typically means smaller class sizes and more opportunities for one-on-one interaction between students and teachers.

Why doesn't this school have a score?
