Summary

Lone Star Elementary in Keller, TX, is a PK-4 school serving 569 students within the highly-rated Keller Independent School District (Isd), a district ranked in the top 25% of Texas school districts. While historically a top performer, the school has experienced a steady decline in its state ranking over the past five years, dropping from the 92nd percentile in 2021-2022 to the 77th percentile currently. This places it in a competitive middle ground among nearby schools, as it has been surpassed by high-flyers like Park Glen Elementary (87th percentile) and Bette Perot Elementary (89th percentile), though it still performs well above the state average.

One of the school's standout strengths is its exceptional preparation of students for advanced math, with 5th-grade math proficiency rates reaching 88% in 2025-2026—far exceeding the district average of 56% and state average of 47%. However, this is not unique to Lone Star, as nearby schools like Willis Lane Elementary and Whitley Road Elementary report similarly high scores, suggesting a district-wide strength in 5th-grade math. Another key differentiator is the school's exceptional effectiveness with Special Education students, who ranked in the 93rd percentile statewide in 2025-2026, earning a 5-star rating—a significant achievement compared to many schools that struggle with this population.

Despite these strengths, Lone Star faces challenges that may be driving its overall decline. The school has shown inconsistent performance across student groups, with a notable drop in effectiveness for students from low socio-economic status (SES) backgrounds, who fell from the 60th percentile to the 42nd percentile in just two years. This is particularly concerning as the percentage of students receiving free/reduced lunch has risen to over 30%. Additionally, the school's per-student spending ($9,720) is below many nearby peers like North Riverside Elementary ($11,944), though its student-teacher ratio of 15.1 remains competitive with high-performing schools like Park Glen (15.5). To reverse its downward trend, Lone Star must urgently address its declining performance with low-SES students while building on its strong foundation in math and special education.
