Summary

Lone Star Elementary in Montgomery, TX, is a PK-5 school serving 695 students within the highly-rated Montgomery Independent School District (Isd), consistently earning a 4-star rating and ranking in the 88th percentile statewide for the 2025-2026 school year.

This school stands out for its exceptional performance with specific student groups. It ranks in the 92nd percentile for male students, earning a 5-star rating, and has shown outstanding support for African American students, ranking in the 99th percentile in a recent year. Academically, Lone Star excels in Reading, with proficiency rates across 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades significantly higher than both district and state averages. However, Math performance is more inconsistent, particularly in 4th grade, which has lagged behind the district average for three years. The school also operates with notable fiscal efficiency, spending $8,387 per student, less than nearby competitors like Stewart Elementary ($8,705) and Bear Branch Elementary ($10,494).

While Lone Star is a strong choice within its district, outperforming peers like Montgomery Elementary and Madeley Ranch Elementary, it faces a notable challenge in supporting its low socio-economic status (SES) students, who ranked in the 36th percentile recently. Additionally, its Gifted and Talented program has declined from the 94th percentile to the 65th percentile over three years. For families considering options, Stewart Elementary in Conroe ISD, just 3 miles away, is a top-tier academic powerhouse ranking in the 97th percentile, though Lone Star remains a reliable and cost-effective option for families within Montgomery ISD boundaries.
