Summary

Pleasant Ridge Middle serves grades 6–8 and enrolls 173 students in Easton, Kansas. In 2025–2026, about half of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), mathematics, and science. The most important takeaway is that the school scored above Kansas averages in all three subjects, but below its Easton district averages in each.

Compared with six nearby schools serving the same grades, Pleasant Ridge was near the top: its proficiency was 50% in ELA, 49% in mathematics, and 48% in science, versus peer averages of 42%, 38%, and 36%. It ranked second to Basehor-Linwood Middle School in all three subjects. Its advantages over Kansas were 4 percentage points in ELA, 8 in mathematics, and 9 in science; it remained 3, 5, and 5 points below the district, respectively. Results also vary by grade: sixth graders scored 55% in ELA and 59% in mathematics, while eighth-grade mathematics was 43%—above the state rate but below three nearby schools.

Results have risen substantially since 2022–2023: proficiency increased by 23 percentage points in ELA, 13 in mathematics, and 14 in science. SchoolDigger ranked Pleasant Ridge at the 78th percentile with 4 stars, compared with the district’s 90th percentile and 5 stars. Its student-teacher ratio was 14.6, higher than those of all six exact grade-span peers, and its 2024–2025 free/reduced-lunch rate was 20%, below those peers’ rates of 22%–64%. SchoolDigger’s student-group rankings also show notable results: Special Education Students ranked at the 97th percentile in 2023–2024, compared with the school overall at the 63rd percentile; Low Socio Economic Status Students’ ranking rose from the 34th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 71st in 2025–2026, nearing the overall school ranking of the 78th percentile.
