Summary:
Elementary schools in 60190 include two schools serving grades PK–5: Pleasant Hill Elementary School (K–5, 583 students) and Winfield Primary School (PK–2, 122 students). Together, they enroll 705 students, with Pleasant Hill serving most of them. The clearest achievement finding is that Pleasant Hill is above state results in every supplied tested subject, by 11 to 19 percentage points.
Pleasant Hill stands out among schools with reported scores: in 2025–2026, its all-grades IAR results were 69% in ELA and 59% in math, compared with state results of 56% and 40%, respectively. Its grade 5 science result was 58%, 11 points above the state. However, it was below Cusd 200 in all-grades ELA by 11 points and in math by 4 points. There is no defensible top-to-bottom ranking: Winfield Primary has no test-score figures supplied, and the schools serve different grade spans.
Pleasant Hill’s scores rose from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: ELA increased by 2 points and math by 3. Its lead over the state narrowed by 1 point in ELA but grew by 2 points in math; grade 5 science rose by 16 points. SchoolDigger lists Pleasant Hill at the 75th percentile in 2025–2026, close to its 76th percentile the year before, despite those test-score increases. For context, in 2024–2025 its student-teacher ratio was 13.7, compared with 10.6 at Winfield Primary; free/reduced lunch eligible students were 40% and 35%, respectively. These figures describe differences between the schools but do not establish what accounts for achievement results.
