History

The district's first school was a one-room schoolhouse established in 1877. The district was officially formed in 1916 as Pleasant Grove District when the Baker District and the Morriss District combined. The district had only an elementary school until 1977, when it opened Pleasant Grove Junior High. The next year, the district was renamed Pleasant Grove Independent School District. In 1983, the district received voter approval to expand its services to the twelfth grade. In 2010, the district opened a fourth school: Pleasant Grove Intermediate School. In November 2020, the previous Pleasant Grove Elementary School closed and was replaced by Margaret Fischer Davis Elementary School. [1]
