Pleasant View Elementary

Summary:

Pleasant View Elementary is a public elementary school in Pleasant View, Tennessee, serving 556 students in grades PK-4 and part of the Cheatham County School District.

Pleasant View Elementary stands out for its unique student demographics, with a significantly higher percentage of white students (88.31%) compared to nearby schools like Crestview Elementary (28.19%) and Westside Elementary (89.85%). The school's academic performance is also noteworthy, as it outperformed the Cheatham County and Tennessee averages in both mathematics and English language arts proficiency, particularly in the 4th grade. However, the school's 3rd-grade students underperformed compared to the county and state.

While Pleasant View Elementary's overall performance is strong, the school's statewide ranking has steadily declined in recent years, from a high of 144 out of 646 Tennessee elementary schools in 2016-2017 to 394 out of 1008 in 2023-2024. This trend is reflected in the school's decreasing proficiency rates in mathematics and English language arts. Additionally, the school lags behind some higher-performing nearby schools, such as West Cheatham Elementary and Carmel Elementary, which consistently have higher proficiency rates and statewide rankings.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

Open Quote I have 2 children that attend Pleasant View Elementary. Our experience has been wonderful. The classrooms are small and the teachers provide a lot of 1-on-1 instruction. The principal, Mr. Keith Miller, has always be welcoming and addressed any concerns I have had. Close Quote

Open Quote This is a wonderful school. We've attended school in nearly a dozen cities (we are frequently relocated and have 5 children) and would rate this is one of the top two. Friendly staff, caring teachers, and an amazing community. The children are motivated and are incredibly polite and mature. All of the teachers were constantly accessible and communicative as was the admin staff.
We are thinking of putting our roots down here permanently based solely on our experience with the school. Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
