Summary

Pleasant Crossing Elementary is a PK–5 school serving 578 students in Whiteland, Indiana, part of the Clark-Pleasant Community School Corp in the south-Indianapolis suburbs. In 2025–2026 it ranked 207th of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools — the 80th percentile with a 4-star rating, the highest rank in the school's provided history, up from the 60th percentile in 2022–2023.

Academically, math and reading are the strengths. Its 2025–2026 math proficiency of 64.64 beat the district (49.73) and every same-district neighbor, including Grassy Creek Elementary School, Whiteland Elementary School, Break-O-Day Elementary School, and Ray Crowe Elementary. Reading was 61.98, essentially tied with Break-O-Day for the top spot among district peers. Fifth grade is a standout: 67.11 in ELA, 69.74 in math, and 56.58 in social studies, all well above district and state. Science is the clear gap — 39.18, below the district's 44.27 and below several nearby schools, and down sharply from 53.09 the year before. Only Center Grove Elementary School (98th percentile) and Maple Grove Elementary School (91st) rank higher nearby, though both serve far fewer students from low-income families.

About 60.03% of students qualified for free or reduced lunch in 2024–2025, up from 50.99% two years earlier, yet the school's ranking climbed during that same period — a sign of real academic momentum. Class sizes are relatively small (14.4 students per teacher), and per-student spending was $11,384. The main concern is attendance: chronic absenteeism jumped from 9.9% to 20.4% in 2024–2025, now above both district and state rates, after years of being better than both. It also outperforms Sugar Grove Elementary School in reading and math despite a much higher low-income rate. Overall: a strong, improving school with one subject-area weakness and one attendance worry.
