PLEASANT MISSION STATEMENT: The faculty and
administration of Mount Pleasant strive to pursue academic
excellence in all aspects of student teaching and learning. We
believe in the capacity of all students to develop their academic
skills and intrinsic motivation for learning. Through the
development of a rigorous program of study, our students are
empowered to achieve at the highest level. We work to continually
develop, implement, and measure progress toward the standards which
are aligned with the school district mission statement and the State
of Delaware.
A web portal presents information from diverse sources in a unified way. Since the end of the 2008-2009 school year, the Brandywine School District requires their school web sites to conform to a standard template. MPHSKnights.com, once the official site for Mount Pleasant High School, is now an online resource maintained independently by the Mount Pleasant Historical Society.
