Summary

Lincoln Elementary is a K–5 school in Exeter, California, in Exeter Unified, serving 522 students. Its clearest academic strength is math, while science is its most consistent shortfall compared with the state and district.

In 2025–26, Lincoln’s math proficiency was 46%, ahead of California by 8 percentage points and its district by 9. It had the highest math result among the eight nearby schools with results; those schools ranged from 17% to 45%. ELA was 51%, slightly above the state by 2 points but below the district by 3. Lincoln’s ELA result exceeded the nearby-school average of 39%, though it was below Rocky Hill Elementary at 57% and Outside Creek Elementary at 61%. Science was 30%, below the state by 6 points and the district by 5; it was close to the nearby-school average of 29% and below Rocky Hill and Outside Creek, both at 38%.

Results have improved over the longer term: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, proficiency rose 16 points in ELA, 13 in math and 7 in science. The latest year brought small declines in ELA and math, down 4 and 2 points, while science rebounded by 11 points. SchoolDigger placed Lincoln at the 62nd statewide percentile with 3 stars in 2025–26, up from the 40th percentile and 2 stars in 2021–22, though down from the 64th percentile the prior year. Its 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 19.6, the second-lowest among nearby schools reporting a ratio; 82% of students were reported as free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s effectiveness ranking for Hispanic students reached the 75th percentile in 2025–26, up from the 45th in 2023–24, while its ranking for White students fell to the 40th percentile from the 58th the previous year. Nearby-school comparisons are broad context because schools serve different grade spans; Rocky Hill is also K–5.
