Summary

Lincoln Fundamental Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 754 students in the Corona-Norco Unified School District, known for its structured "fundamental" educational approach and strong academic performance that consistently exceeds district and state averages.

What truly sets Lincoln apart is its remarkable success in supporting its students, with academic results that far outpace other nearby schools serving similar communities. For example, while about 68% of Lincoln's students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, its proficiency rates in English (66%) and Math (51%) are dramatically higher than at schools like Parkridge Elementary or Jefferson Elementary. Furthermore, Lincoln's chronic absenteeism rate is an exceptionally low 5.1%, compared to over 23% at John Stallings Elementary and 15% at Foothill Elementary, indicating a very positive and engaging school culture.

The school shows particular strength in supporting students from low-income families, special education students, and in English Language Arts. A key point of comparison is Susan B. Anthony Elementary, which has slightly higher test scores but serves a less economically disadvantaged population; Lincoln achieves its strong outcomes with similar per-student spending and much lower student absenteeism. While the school is effectively serving most groups, support for English Learners is a noted area for improvement. Overall, Lincoln's model proves highly effective for its community.
