Summary

Lo-Inyo Elementary serves 197 students in grades K–8 in Lone Pine, California. In 2025–2026, SchoolDigger rated it 3 stars and placed it at the 50th percentile statewide. Its clearest academic strength is mathematics, where proficiency was nearly level with California’s; science is its largest current shortfall against the state.

Among nearby schools, Owens Valley Elementary is the only comparison, and Lo-Inyo had higher all-grade proficiency in every tested subject in 2025–2026. ELA proficiency was 43% versus 26%, mathematics was 38% versus 26%, and science was 24% versus 21%. Compared with California, Lo-Inyo was 6 percentage points lower in ELA (43% versus 49%), about level in mathematics (37.6% versus 38.4%), and 12 points lower in science (24% versus 36%). It was also slightly below Lone Pine Unified in all three subjects: about level in ELA, 3 points lower in mathematics, and 1 point lower in science. Results vary by grade, too: ELA was above the state in grades 5 and 8 but well below it in grades 4 and 7.

Results have improved since 2022–2023: ELA proficiency rose 10 percentage points and mathematics rose 13, while science increased 12 points over that period but fell 8 points from 2024–2025. SchoolDigger’s overall percentile rose from 32 in 2022–2023 to 50 in 2025–2026. Its measure of how well the school serves Male Students climbed from the 2nd percentile in 2023–2024 to the 56th in 2025–2026; for Low Socio Economic Status Students, it rose from the 18th percentile in 2024–2025 to the 53rd. Chronic absenteeism is worth watching: it reached 26% in 2025–2026, up 7 points from 2023–2024 and 7 points above the state, though below the nearby school’s 36%. In 2024–2025, the student-teacher ratio was 16.4, compared with 12.8 at Owens Valley. The school reported that 59% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025; this is an eligibility measure, not a count of students receiving meals.
