Best Public Schools in Pleasant Hill, OR


Summary:

The city of Pleasant Hill, Oregon is home to two schools: Pleasant Hill High School and Pleasant Hill Elementary School, both part of the Pleasant Hill School District 1. While the elementary school has maintained a consistent statewide ranking, both schools are underperforming compared to state averages, particularly in core academic subjects like English Language Arts and Mathematics.

Pleasant Hill High School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 152nd out of 241 Oregon high schools in 2021-2022 to 199th out of 258 in 2022-2023. This suggests the school's performance may be declining relative to other high schools in the state. Both schools have significantly lower proficiency rates in ELA and Math compared to state averages, particularly in the higher grade levels. For example, at Pleasant Hill High School, only 14.3% of 11th graders were proficient in ELA in 2022-2023, compared to the state average of 46.2%.

Despite the challenges, both Pleasant Hill High School and Pleasant Hill Elementary School have relatively low student-teacher ratios and higher than average spending per student. However, the high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at both schools suggest the district may be serving a population with significant economic disadvantages, which could have implications for the resources and support available to these students.
