Pleasanton Public Schools

The Pleasanton Public Schools district in Nebraska consists of two schools: Pleasanton Elementary School and Pleasanton High School. Both schools demonstrate strong academic performance, with proficiency rates exceeding state averages in several subject areas.

Pleasanton Elementary School stands out for its relatively high proficiency rates in NSCAS/Mathematics and NSCAS/Science, as well as its consistent high state ranking in the top 50% of Nebraska elementary schools. Meanwhile, Pleasanton High School impresses with its impressive ACT proficiency rates in English Language Arts and strong NSCAS/English Language Arts proficiency in grades 7 and 8.

However, the district may benefit from exploring ways to increase racial diversity, as both schools have a relatively homogeneous student population, with over 96% of students identifying as white. Additionally, the higher free and reduced lunch rates, particularly at the high school level, suggest that the district may need to provide additional resources and support for students from lower-income households. Overall, the Pleasanton Public Schools district appears to be delivering a quality education, but there are opportunities for improvement in addressing diversity and socioeconomic factors.
