Message from the Principal
Mount Pleasant Middle School
Home of the Diamonds
As we enter our seventh school
year, we are looking forward to our
most successful year ever.  Through
the diligence of our outstanding
teachers, staff and Board of
Directors, we are rapidly growing.  
We are excited about the opportunity
students and their families have as
part of the Mt. Pleasant learning
community where academics,
student self-discipline, respect, and
parent involvement are our
cornerstones.  We encourage you to
take advantage of the many
opportunities to be actively involved
in your child's education through
attendance at monthly PTSO
meetings and volunteering to assist
with the many activities planned
throughout the school year.

Our dedicated teachers and staff
work hard to make sure our children
receive the best education
possible.  It is this commitment to
excellence that resulted in Mt.
Pleasant making academic gains in
Reading and Math.
In 2009,  Mt.
Pleasant received a school
grade of "B".

At Mt. Pleasant Middle School, our
goal is to develop the whole child.  If
you want your child in a caring and
disciplined environment, consider
making Mt. Pleasant the choice for
your child’s educational needs.  We
look forward to partnering with you!


Sincerely,
Yolonda Waitress
Principal

Mt. Pleasant Student Pledge
    Mt. Pleasant S. B. Middle School opened in 2003-2004. We have
    consistently made significant gains on the FCAT and the number of
    students who have successfully met benchmarks for their appropriate
    grade levels.   On the 2009 FCAT, Mt. Pleasant received recognition for
    making significant learning gains in Reading and Math. In addition,
    Mt. Pleasant received a school grade of "B".

    Admission is free and open to all middle school students.  
    Transportation may be provided, depending on the student's address
    and bus availability. Many of our parents choose to provide
    transportation for their child(ren).  Mt. Pleasant emphasizes parent
    involvement through monthly Parent Teacher Student Organization
    (PTSO) meetings, School Advisory Council (SAC) meetings, and
    volunteering.  Students are expected to follow all school rules, show
    self-discipline, responsibility, respect, complete class assignments,
    nightly homework, and adhere to the uniform dress code policy.

    Mt. Pleasant S. B. Middle School is a sponsor of the National School
    Breakfast/Lunch Program and provides well-balanced, nutritious and
    delicious meals to our children.

    The total commitment of the Board of Directors, Students, Parents, Staff,
    Community, and Business Partnerships has resulted in high student
    achievements.
     
    Mt. Pleasant S. B. Middle School is not a private school, not a church
    school, and not an alternative school. We are a traditional public school.
