History
The 55-square mile area formerly included several smaller districts, and the first one-room school was established in 1877. The Baker District and the Morriss district united in 1916 to form Pleasant Grove School District. Pleasant Grove operated only an elementary school for many years. Pleasant Grove Junior High School opened in August 1977 and is now known as Pleasant Grove Middle School. The district was renamed Pleasant Grove Independent School District in September 1978. In 1983, voters approved the expansion of the educational program through grade 12. The first class of seniors graduated in May 1986, and a new high school facility was opened in August 1986. Since 1986, three bonds have been passed to serve the needs of the growing district and provide students and staff with updated facilities. In October 2008, Pleasant Grove Intermediate School opened for grades 3-5. In May 2010, the Pleasant Grove High School competition gym and multipurpose facility opened to meet the needs of our student athletes and extracurricular activities. Most recently in November 2020, the Margaret Fischer Davis Elementary School opened to relocate the current elementary students and staff members to a facility at 2800 Galleria Oaks.Accreditation
All schools in the Pleasant Grove Independent School District are fully accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and the Texas Education Agency.Schools
