Summary:
Pleasanton Public Schools has only one elementary school, Pleasanton Elementary School, which serves grades PK-6 and has a total enrollment of 176 students. The school's performance has been mixed, with some subject areas and grade levels performing above the state average, while others are below. Additionally, the school has a significantly higher chronic absenteeism rate of 21.1% compared to the state average, which is a concern that needs to be addressed.
Academically, Pleasanton Elementary School's proficiency rates in NSCAS/English Language Arts for grades 3-6 are below the state average, but the school's proficiency rates in NSCAS/Mathematics for grades 5-6 and NSCAS/Science for 5th grade are above the state average. This variability in performance across different subject areas and grade levels suggests the need for a more in-depth analysis to identify the root causes and develop targeted improvement strategies.
Regarding socioeconomic factors, 25.57% of Pleasanton Elementary School's students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant proportion of low-income families in the school's population. The school's per-student spending for the 2022-2023 school year was $15,824, and the student-teacher ratio was 14.3, which may indicate the school's efforts to provide additional resources and support to address the needs of its student population.
