GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

It has an amazing work environment. The faculty and staff was great! However, the School was not very diverse!

I truly loved pleasant a lot, however there is a bullying problem that needs to be fixed. The music program is pretty good, but there needs to be more funding for it. The sports here are well loved but can sometimes be prioritized over other things that need more attention. I wish there was an orchestra program when I was in high school but that was one of the first things to go when budget cuts were made.

We recently hired a full time security guard for the district. The doors to buildings are all locked but students opening the doors for strangers is a large issue. As well, once a visitor comes to a door and buzzes to the office, they unlock the door remotely and just HOPE the visitor comes into the office (which is down the hall from the door) to sign in.

Pleasant High School is the absolute best high school in Marion County. It is the school of voice for professional parents. It has educated 4 of my family members: a lawyer, a psychologist, a law student, and a marketing executive. It is safe and challenging. Highly recommended.
