Summary

The 305-student Lone Tree Elementary serves grades K–5 in Beale AFB and is part of the Wheatland district. In 2025–26, its all-grade proficiency was above state and district results in English language arts (ELA), math and science. Science was the clearest strength: 55% proficiency, compared with 36% statewide and 41% in the district. The most important takeaway is that Lone Tree’s strongest advantage is in science, where it also led nearby schools with reported results.

Compared with nearby schools, Lone Tree was fourth among 11 schools with reported all-grade results in both ELA and math, while Browns Valley Elementary, Clear Creek Elementary and Wheatland Charter Academy scored higher in both subjects. In science, Lone Tree’s 55% was above Browns Valley’s 52% and Clear Creek’s 48%. Results also vary by grade: grade 4 was a high point, with 70% in ELA and 67% in math; grade 3 was weaker, at 38% in ELA and 44% in math. Grade 3 ELA was below both state and district results, while grade 3 math was below the state but slightly above the district.

Results have shifted over time: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, ELA fell 8 percentage points and math fell 1, while science rose 12 points. Science’s advantage over the state jumped from 4 points in 2024–25 to 19 points in 2025–26, a large one-year change. SchoolDigger rates Lone Tree at the 70th statewide percentile with 4 stars; its standing has risen from the 49th percentile in 2018–19 but remains below its 81st-percentile high in 2021–22. Its 21.7 student–teacher ratio is mid-range among nearby schools. In 2024–25, 48.5% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, below the 64% average among nearby schools with the same measure and year. SchoolDigger’s 2025–26 rankings also place the school’s effectiveness for Multi-racial Students at the 22nd percentile and for White Students at the 37th percentile, compared with the school’s overall 70th percentile.
