Summary

Lincoln High School is a public charter high school serving grades 9-12 in Lincoln, Arkansas, with 359 students. The school is part of the Lincoln School District, which is ranked 142 out of 250 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating. Unfortunately, Lincoln High School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past decade, going from a high of 104 out of 264 high schools in 2016-2017 to 219 out of 291 high schools in the most recent 2024-2025 school year.

One of the key challenges facing Lincoln High School is its consistently low test scores. The school consistently underperforms the state average in proficiency rates across all subject areas and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 25.6% of Lincoln High School students were proficient in English Language Arts compared to the state average of 34.7%. The gaps are even wider in math, with only 7.8% proficient in Algebra and 9.1% proficient in Geometry, compared to state averages of 30.9% and 21.5% respectively. Additionally, the school has a very high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 59.94% to 64.76% over the past 3 school years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

When comparing Lincoln High School to nearby schools, the academic performance gap becomes even more apparent. For example, Har-Ber High School, Fayetteville High School, and Prairie Grove High School all significantly outperform Lincoln High School on state assessments, with proficiency rates that are 10-20 percentage points higher across the board. The contrast is even more stark when compared to Haas Hall Academy, a top-ranked high school in the state, which boasts proficiency rates that are over 40 percentage points higher than Lincoln High School in core subject areas.
