Summary

Pleasant View Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Hedgesville, West Virginia, serving 128 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Morgan County Schools district, which is ranked 33 out of 55 districts in the state.

Despite its relatively low student-teacher ratio, Pleasant View Elementary School has consistently underperformed compared to the district and the state of West Virginia in academic assessments. The school's statewide ranking has declined from 97 out of 402 elementary schools in 2015-2016 to 190 out of 355 in 2024-2025. This suggests the school is struggling to keep up with the performance of other elementary schools in the state. Additionally, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with female students outperforming male students and white students outperforming Hispanic students.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Warm Springs Intermediate and Tomahawk Intermediate, which are also part of the Morgan County Schools district, Pleasant View Elementary School's academic performance is generally lower. This indicates that factors beyond just the student-teacher ratio, such as curriculum, instructional practices, and school leadership, may be contributing to the school's underperformance.

Open Quote Staffed by bigots and gossip-ridden junkies. Staff is poorly skilled and there are no appropriate resources to keep the children engaged in grade appropriate work. Typical small town school/politics... they are at their best. Close Quote
