Schools in Zip Code 66020

Zip code 66020 has three Pleasant Ridge Elementary, Pleasant Ridge Middle, and Pleasant Ridge High schools serving Easton students from prekindergarten through grade 12, with 685 students combined. The schools’ unweighted averages are above state results in English language arts (ELA), mathematics, and science: 49% versus 46% in ELA, 53% versus 41% in math, and 52% versus 38% in science. Because the schools serve different grade spans, their all-grades results are not perfectly like-for-like. The most important takeaway is that the favorable area averages hide a clear exception: High’s ELA result is below the state figure.

Pleasant Ridge Elementary is the strongest all-around performer, leading the local schools in ELA at 60%, math at 59%, and science at 65%; it leads the next-highest school by 10, 8, and 17 percentage points, respectively. Pleasant Ridge Middle does not lead the group, but its ELA, math, and science results—50%, 49%, and 48%—are each above the state by 4, 8, and 9 points. Pleasant Ridge High is the lowest in ELA at 38%, 8 points below the state and 13 points below Middle. Its results are stronger in math (51%, 10 points above the state) and science (44%, 6 points above).

Recent changes are mixed: the average ELA result rose by 1 percentage point from 2024–25 to 2025–26, but the state figure also rose and the schools’ lead narrowed from 4 points to 3. The average math result was essentially unchanged while the state gained 2 points, narrowing the lead from 14 points to 12. SchoolDigger places all three schools at the 78th percentile statewide in their categories; their three-year paths differ, with Middle rising from the 63rd to the 78th percentile, Elementary moving from the 74th to the 78th after reaching the 82nd, and High rising from the 76th to the 78th after an earlier 86th-percentile result. Reported student-teacher ratios are 12.6 at Elementary, 14.6 at Middle, and 10.6 at High; free/reduced-lunch rates are 30%, 20%, and 27%, respectively—contextual differences that do not form a simple pattern with scores.
