Summary

Pleasantview Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Eastpointe, Michigan, serving grades 3-5 with a total enrollment of 265 students. Based on the data provided, Pleasantview Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Michigan elementary schools over the past several years, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Pleasantview Elementary faces significant challenges, including extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, well below average academic performance on state assessments, and a very high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. For example, in 2024-2025, only 14% of 3rd graders were proficient in ELA, compared to 38.9% statewide, and math proficiency rates were even lower, with only 8.4% of 3rd graders and 6.7% of 4th graders meeting proficiency standards. The school also has a higher percentage of students receiving special education services compared to the state average and nearby schools.

Interestingly, Bellview Elementary School, another school in the Eastpointe Community Schools district, as well as nearby charter schools like Regent Park Scholars Charter Academy, tend to have higher academic proficiency rates, lower chronic absenteeism, and lower percentages of students from low-income backgrounds. Despite the increased spending at Pleasantview Elementary, ranging from $10,548 to $16,696 per student in recent years, the school's performance has remained stagnant or even declined in some areas, suggesting the need for a comprehensive, data-driven approach to address the root causes of the school's struggles.
