Summary:

The Pleasantville Community School District in Iowa has only one high school, Pleasantville High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's performance has declined in recent years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 123 out of 336 Iowa high schools in 2022-2023 to 271 out of 340 in 2024-2025, and its SchoolDigger rating decreasing from 3 stars to 1 star during the same period.

Pleasantville High School's graduation rate was 88.3% in 2023-2024, and its chronic absenteeism rate was 21.6% that same year. The school's test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are generally lower than the state average for Iowa, with some exceptions, such as the 10th-grade English Language Arts proficiency rate in 2023-2024 being higher than the state average. Additionally, 32.65% of Pleasantville High School students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024, which may be a contributing factor to the school's academic performance.

Despite the district's relatively high spending of $19,905 per student in 2018-2019 and a student-teacher ratio of 13.7 in 2023-2024, the data suggests that Pleasantville High School is facing challenges in maintaining its academic performance and standing within the state. The school's declining performance and mixed academic results highlight the need for further investigation and targeted interventions to address the identified areas of concern.
