Summary
Lincoln (Abraham) Elementary serves 740 students in grades K–6 in Anaheim, California, as part of the Anaheim Elementary district. Its most important challenge is low proficiency across all three core subjects: in 2025–26, 23% of students met proficiency in English language arts, 15% in math and 14% in science. Each result was below both district and state averages, and Lincoln ranked among the lowest of 10 nearby district schools in every subject: lowest in math and second-lowest in ELA and science.
Science is Lincoln’s strongest subject relative to nearby schools, but remains well below the benchmarks: its 14% result was 9 percentage points below the nearby-school average of 23%, 7 points below the district’s 21% and 22 points below the state’s 36%. ELA was furthest behind the state, with a 26-point gap (23% versus 49%); math was the lowest-scoring subject and ranked last among nearby schools, at 15% compared with a nearby average of 25%. Fourth grade stands out as a particular weak point: proficiency was 12% in ELA and 10% in math, Lincoln’s lowest grade-level results in those subjects.
Scores improved from 2024–25 to 2025–26 in all three subjects, rising 7 percentage points in ELA, 2 in math and 3 in science. Over the four reported years, however, the gap to the state narrowed only in ELA (by 1 point); it widened in math by 3 points and science by 5. SchoolDigger ranks Lincoln at the 9th statewide percentile, with 0 stars and a rank of 5,269 out of 5,804; its percentile is below all nine nearby district schools with reported rankings, which range from 13 to 57. One subgroup result is especially notable: SchoolDigger’s percentile for Special Education Students fell from 37 in 2023–24 to 0 in 2025–26, a sharp decline in its relative measure for how well the school serves this group. Chronic absenteeism improved by 16 points, from 34% in 2021–22 to 17.8% in 2025–26, slightly below the district’s 17.9% and the state’s 18.3%, though still the second-highest rate among nearby district schools. As context, Lincoln’s student–teacher ratio was 23.1 in 2024–25, compared with 22.6 nearby, and 87% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year, the highest comparable share among nearby schools.
