Summary:
The city of Beale AFB, California is home to two elementary schools - Lone Tree Elementary and Wheatland Charter Academy. Both schools demonstrate strong academic performance, with Lone Tree Elementary outperforming the Wheatland School District and state averages on standardized tests. Wheatland Charter Academy also shows impressive results, particularly in 3rd grade English Language Arts and Mathematics.
The student populations at both schools are relatively diverse, with Lone Tree Elementary having a more even distribution across racial groups and Wheatland Charter Academy having a higher percentage of white and Hispanic students. However, Wheatland Charter Academy has a higher student-teacher ratio compared to the other elementary schools in the Wheatland School District, which could impact the quality of instruction and individual attention students receive.
Both schools serve a population with significant economic challenges, as evidenced by the relatively high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Additionally, while not extremely high, the chronic absenteeism rates at both schools are an area of concern that the schools may want to address to improve student outcomes.
