Pleasant View School is a historic one-room school located near Medford, Johnson County, Missouri. It was built in 1915, and is a one-story, side-gabled, bungaloid frame building. The blackboard, desks, book cases, a water cooler and an oil stove are intact from when the building was last used as a schoolhouse in 1957. Also on the property are the contributing school privy, the foundation of a coal storage building, and a well with a hand pump.[2]: 5 

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.[1]
