There were 1,103 white students enrolled in Pleasant Local Schools in the 2022-23 school year, a decrease from the 1,137 white students in the previous school year, according to the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce.

Data showed that Pleasant Local Schools welcomed 1,201 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, white students made up 91.8% of the student body, making them the most represented ethnicity in the district.

Pleasant Local Schools roughly covers four schools within Marion County and has its main office in Marion.

In 2022, Ohio saw an average student-to-teacher ratio of approximately 1:15, which is better than the national average of 1:16. This marks an improvement for the state, especially compared to 2016, when the ratio reached its decade-high at 16.1 students per teacher.

Despite the apparent improvement, this positive trend is overshadowed by a general decline in public school enrollments, which was accelerated by the pandemic. This decline, aligned with the steady number of teachers in the state over the last 10 years, has led to low student-to-teacher ratios.
