Middle Schools in Selma Unified

Summary:

Selma Unified School District contains one middle school, Abraham Lincoln Middle, which serves 892 students in grades 7 and 8 within a district ranked in the lower quarter statewide.

This school serves a community with high economic need, yet it performs at or above the Selma Unified district average in all core subjects. Its strongest area is English Language Arts, where 8th graders perform close to the state average, while mathematics proficiency is a significant challenge, falling well below the state average. The school has shown some fluctuation in its statewide ranking over recent years, currently sitting in the 45th percentile.

Notable strengths include a chronic absenteeism rate that is better than both the district and state averages, and the district invests over $19,000 per student. For parents, this indicates a school managing attendance well in a challenging context, with substantial resources, but one where math achievement is a clear focus for improvement. The performance progression from 7th to 8th grade suggests students are making academic gains during their time at the school.
