Summary

Lincoln Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 569 students in the Lincoln Unified district of Stockton, CA, where it consistently earns a 2-star rating and serves a high-need community.

When compared to nearby schools, Lincoln has clear academic strengths, particularly in mathematics where it outperforms both its district average and all local peers like Colonial Heights, John R. Williams, and Tully C. Knoles. It also shows notable effectiveness in supporting English Language Learners and Hispanic students, with these groups ranking well above the state average. The school operates with a higher student-teacher ratio than surrounding schools but spends less per student, suggesting efficient use of resources to achieve these outcomes.

The school has made impressive progress in improving student attendance, cutting its chronic absenteeism rate nearly in half since 2022. While challenges remain in science and supporting female students academically, Lincoln's stable performance, strengths in key areas, and positive attendance trend are promising signs for families. Its performance generally surpasses that of schools in the neighboring Stockton Unified district, such as Pulliam Elementary and Adams Elementary, despite similar community demographics.
