Summary:
The Lone Tree Community School District has one elementary school, Lone Tree Elementary School, which serves grades PK-5 and has an enrollment of 229 students. This school has consistently ranked in the top 20% of Iowa elementary schools, reaching as high as the 91st percentile in the 2024-2025 school year.
Lone Tree Elementary School's proficiency rates on the ISASP exams are significantly higher than the state averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics. For example, in 2024-2025, 93.8% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in ELA and Math, compared to state averages of 67.9% and 75.8% respectively. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 21.6% in 2023-2024 is lower than the state average.
While the school's overall performance is impressive, the relatively high free/reduced lunch rate of 30.13% (2023-2024) indicates that a significant portion of the student population may be from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Further analysis of the district's demographics and resource allocation could provide insights into how the school is supporting these students and ensuring equitable outcomes.
