Best Public Schools in Pleasanton, TX


Summary:

The city of Pleasanton, Texas is home to 5 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools (one of which is an alternative school). The schools in this Pleasanton Independent School District (ISD) face challenges related to poverty and academic performance, but also show signs of potential for improvement.

Pleasanton High School stands out as the strongest performer, with a 96.4% 4-year graduation rate and above-average test scores compared to the district and state. In contrast, the Pleasanton ISD School of Choice alternative high school struggles, with a low 78.9% graduation rate and high 11.4% dropout rate, though it serves a 100% Hispanic student population with a very low student-teacher ratio of 9.0.

Across the district, the schools have a majority Hispanic student population and very high free/reduced lunch rates of 60-73%, indicating significant economic disadvantages. Test scores are consistently below state averages, suggesting systemic issues that need to be addressed. However, the relatively low student-teacher ratios, especially at the alternative high school, could allow for more individualized attention and support to help improve outcomes for the students of Pleasanton.
