Summary

Lincrest Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 595 students in the Yuba City Unified district, notable for its strong academic results within a community facing significant economic need.

The school stands out for its effective mathematics program and its remarkable ability to support students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, outperforming other local schools with similar challenges like April Lane Elementary, Bridge Street Elementary, and Park Avenue Elementary. It has shown impressive, consistent improvement in recent years and manages student attendance better than both the district and state averages. Its profile is very similar to its close neighbor, Lincoln Elementary, which has nearly identical demographics and performance.

While Lincrest excels in several areas, the school's leaders are aware of challenges, such as a dip in 5th-grade math scores and the need to ensure all student groups are thriving. Compared to schools like King Avenue Elementary, Lincrest achieves its strong outcomes efficiently. Looking at a high-performing school in a neighboring district, like Covillaud Elementary in Marysville Joint Unified, suggests there is still room for growth, but the current trajectory at Lincrest is very positive.
