Summary

Pleasant Hill Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Pleasant Hill, Oregon, serving 450 students in grades K-5 and is part of the Pleasant Hill School District 1, which is ranked 50 out of 140 districts in the state.

The school has consistently ranked in the middle to upper-middle range of Oregon elementary schools, maintaining a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger for most years, except for a 2-star rating in 2022-2023. While female students have generally outperformed their male counterparts, the performance of other student groups has been mixed, with white students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds showing varying results, and special education students struggling. In terms of test scores, Pleasant Hill Elementary has outperformed the state average in 3rd and 4th-grade English Language Arts and Mathematics, but underperformed in 5th grade. However, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 17.9% in 2021-2022 to 38.5% in 2022-2023, which is a concerning trend.

Compared to nearby schools, Maple Elementary, Two Rivers Dos Rios Elementary, and Lundy Elementary generally perform worse than Pleasant Hill Elementary in terms of statewide rankings and test scores, while schools like Douglas Gardens Elementary and Thurston Elementary outperform Pleasant Hill Elementary in several metrics. Additionally, the decrease in per-student spending and the increase in student-teacher ratio at Pleasant Hill Elementary may be contributing factors to the school's performance and could impact the quality of education provided to students.
