Summary

Lone Jack School Center is a 196-student PK–8 school in Fourmile, in rural Bell County. Its results show real strengths in some older-grade reading and social studies, but the most important finding for families is that achievement varies sharply by grade: fifth-grade math and editing/mechanics, and seventh-grade science, are notable weak spots.

Some results stand out locally: third-grade reading was 67%, the highest reported among nearby schools, just ahead of Girdler Elementary School at 66%; eighth-grade social studies was 67%, above results at Yellow Creek School Center, Right Fork School Center, Page School Center and Bell Central School Center. By contrast, fifth-grade math was 29%, below the state’s 43% and Bell County’s 47%; fifth-grade editing/mechanics was 33%, versus 48% statewide and 51% districtwide. Seventh-grade science was also low at 22%, compared with 28% statewide and 38% districtwide.

SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking rose from the 17th percentile in 2022–2023 to the 58th percentile and 3 stars in 2025–2026, a 41-point increase; still, seven of the ten nearby schools with ranks scored higher. SchoolDigger’s student-group rankings differ sharply: the school ranks at the 97th percentile for Male Students and the 38th for Female Students, compared with 58th overall. Chronic absenteeism fell from 42% to 33% between 2024–2025 and 2025–2026, but remained above the state’s 24% and district’s 30%. For context, the 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 13.5, and 82% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible—close to the nearby-school average of 81%.
