Pleasanton Independent School District (Isd)

The Pleasanton Independent School District (ISD) in Texas operates 6 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 2 high schools, and 1 alternative school. The district serves the Pleasanton area and surrounding communities. While some schools, like Pleasanton High School, perform relatively well, others, such as Pleasanton J H (Middle School), struggle, particularly in mathematics. Socioeconomic factors, as indicated by the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, may be influencing student outcomes across the district.

Pleasanton High School stands out with a high 4-year graduation rate of 95.1% and a low dropout rate of 0.7% in 2022-2023. The school also performs better than the district and state averages on some STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams, such as Biology and U.S. History, but lags behind on others like Algebra I and English I/II Reading. In contrast, Pleasanton Elementary and Pleasanton J H (Middle School) struggle to meet state averages on STAAR exams, particularly in mathematics.

The data also reveals significant disparities in resource allocation, with spending per student ranging from $9,419 at Pleasanton Independent School District (ISD) School of Choice to $12,904 at Pleasanton High School. The challenges faced by the middle school and the alternative school suggest that the district may need to focus on addressing the unique needs of these student populations to ensure more equitable outcomes across the Pleasanton Independent School District (ISD).
