Summary

Lincoln-Hancock Community School is a public elementary school serving 567 students in grades K-4 in Quincy, Massachusetts. The school's academic performance, as measured by MCAS Next Generation test scores, is generally below the Quincy district and Massachusetts state averages across grade levels and subject areas.

The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups. While it performs relatively well for English Language Learner (ELL) students, ranking in the top 20% of Massachusetts elementary schools in this category, the school struggles with the performance of its White and Special Education student populations, ranking in the bottom 25% of the state for these groups. The school's Asian and African American student subgroups also perform below the state averages for those groups.

Despite these challenges, Lincoln-Hancock Community School has access to resources that could help drive improvement.

Additionally, the school is located in close proximity to several other Quincy elementary schools, such as Wollaston School and Beechwood Knoll Elementary, which consistently outperform Lincoln-Hancock Community School on academic measures, providing opportunities for collaboration and learning.
