Summary

Pleasanton Elementary in Pleasanton, TX, serves 733 students in grades 3 through 5 within the Pleasanton Independent School District (Isd), and is a mid-to-large sized school where about 67% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Overall academic performance at Pleasanton Elementary has been historically low, with a recent downward trend to the 23rd percentile statewide in 2025-2026, earning a 1-star rating. This places it significantly below nearby peers like Jourdanton Elementary (44th percentile) and Charlotte Elementary (57th percentile). However, the school shows a remarkable strength with its Gifted and Talented (GT) students, who ranked in the 72nd percentile statewide, earning a 4-star rating. In contrast, the school struggles most with English Language Learner (ELL) students, who ranked in the 5th percentile, the lowest possible rating. This creates a "two-speed" school where high-achieving students excel while the most vulnerable students are left behind.

Despite having a lower student-to-teacher ratio (13.8:1) than many nearby schools, such as Pleasanton Pri (17.4:1) and Heritage Elementary (17.9:1), and spending more per student ($11,207) than higher-performing schools like Jourdanton Elementary ($9,399), these resources have not translated into better overall outcomes. The school has seen a sharp decline from the 54th percentile in 2020-2021 to the 23rd percentile in 2025-2026, suggesting systemic issues. Interestingly, Spanish-language STAAR tests show some promise, with 4th-grade Reading in Spanish scoring above the state average, indicating that native language instruction may benefit some students but is not being effectively scaled for the broader ELL population.
