Summary

Treeline Elementary School in Fort Myers, FL, is a large PK-5 school serving 1,057 students within the Lee school district, and it stands out as a strong academic performer in its area, particularly in English Language Arts (ELA).

Treeline’s biggest strength is its reading program, with 4th and 5th-grade ELA proficiency rates (62% and 61%) that are the highest among all nearby schools and exceed the district average. This is a key differentiator, as most neighboring schools struggle to reach district averages in reading. For example, Gateway Elementary School, just 3.1 miles away, has a similar economic profile but shows an inverted academic profile—Gateway excels in math (69% in 4th-grade math) while Treeline lags in that subject (52% in 4th-grade math). Treeline also has a lower rate of economic disadvantage (43.52% free/reduced lunch) than many peers, such as Franklin Park Elementary School (73.66%) and Colonial Elementary School (66.72%), and its chronic absenteeism rate (25.7%) is significantly better than the district average (34.6%) and schools like Ray V. Pottorf Elementary School (35.9%).

Treeline has shown remarkable year-over-year improvement, with proficiency rates jumping dramatically from 2024-2025 to 2025-2026—for instance, 5th-grade science went from 46% to 61% and 5th-grade ELA from 45% to 61%. The school also operates efficiently, spending less per student ($10,696) than many higher-spending, lower-performing neighbors like Villas Elementary School ($14,772/student). While math performance in upper grades lags behind the district average, Treeline’s consistent top-40% state ranking makes it a bright spot in a district ranked in the bottom 30% of Florida, offering a valuable option for families seeking strong reading instruction and a stable, improving school environment.
