Pleasant View Elementary

Summary:

Pleasant View Elementary is a public elementary school in Franklin, Wisconsin, serving around 450 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Franklin Public School District, which is ranked 81 out of 428 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

Pleasant View Elementary is a high-performing school, consistently ranking in the top 25% of Wisconsin elementary schools for the past decade. In the 2021-2022 school year, the school achieved a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger, placing it in the top 7% of elementary schools in the state. However, its ranking has since declined, now placing it in the top 23% of schools in the 2023-2024 school year. The school outperforms the state and district averages in academic proficiency, particularly for certain student subgroups such as Asian and multi-racial students, who rank in the top 25% and top 2%, respectively, among Wisconsin elementary schools. The school also maintains strong performance for Hispanic and female students, ranking in the top 14% and top 70%, respectively, in recent years.

While Pleasant View Elementary is a top-performing school in the Franklin Public School District, it faces competition from other high-achieving schools in the surrounding area, such as Canterbury Elementary in the Greendale School District and College Park Elementary in the Oak Creek-Franklin Joint School District, which have comparable or even higher academic performance in certain subject areas and grade levels. Additionally, the school's relatively low percentage of economically disadvantaged students, compared to some nearby schools, may contribute to its strong academic performance.

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.

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.
