Summary:
The city of Pleasanton, Kansas is home to two public schools - Pleasanton Elementary and Pleasanton High. Both schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade and are part of the Pleasanton school district. However, the data indicates that the schools in this district are underperforming compared to state averages.
Neither Pleasanton Elementary nor Pleasanton High stand out as high-performing schools. Pleasanton Elementary is ranked 412 out of 656 Kansas elementary schools and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, while Pleasanton High is ranked 271 out of 332 Kansas high schools and has a 1-star rating. Both schools have high rates of chronic absenteeism and underperform the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency across all grade levels.
The data also reveals that the schools in the Pleasanton school district serve a socioeconomically disadvantaged student population, with high percentages of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Additionally, the district's relatively low per-student spending and high student-teacher ratios may be contributing factors to the schools' underperformance. Significant improvements are needed across multiple areas to help the Pleasanton schools better serve their community.
