Summary

Abraham Lincoln is a K–5 elementary school in Paramount, serving 502 students in the Paramount Unified area. Its 2025–26 results compare favorably with nearby schools in English language arts (ELA) and math, but the latest ELA score is a notable setback: it fell to 44% from 53% the year before, putting the school 6 points below California after it had been 4 points above the state.

The school’s strongest subject relative to the state and district is math: its 38.2% proficiency was just below the state’s 38.4% and 12 points above the district. It also topped the nearby-school average by 4 points. ELA remains comparatively strong locally—6 points above the nearby average and 2 points above the district—even though it trails the state by 6 points. Science is the clearest weakness: 23% proficiency was 13 points below the state, 1 point below the district, and 2 points below the nearby average. Among 11 schools, including Abraham Lincoln, it ranked third in ELA, fifth in math and eighth in science.

Results have shifted over time: ELA rose in 2024–25 before its latest decline, while science fell 8 points from 2022–23; math has moved from 6 points above the state in 2022–23 to just below it now. SchoolDigger placed the school in the 48th percentile statewide in 2025–26 (rank 3,007 of 5,804; 2 stars), down from the 62nd percentile in 2022–23, though above the district’s 36th percentile. Chronic absenteeism improved from 48% in 2021–22 to 21% in 2025–26, still 3 points above the state. In 2024–25, 94% of students were eligible for free/reduced-price lunch, compared with a 93% nearby-school average, and the student-teacher ratio was 21.8, near the nearby average of 21.2. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for Hispanic Students was notably higher than the school’s overall ranking in 2025–26: the 65th percentile versus the 48th. For English Language Learner Students, it ranked at the 83rd percentile in 2023–24, 28 points above its overall standing that year; that is the latest ELL ranking provided.

What people are saying

by a parent
Wednesday, April 1, 2009

The administration is unprofessional as they lack the knowledge of their students rights. I am very sad to have had a phone conference with the school's Principal Mrs. Go because the Vice-Principal had taken my son's jacket do to the fact that it was not the school's dress code. The weather was very cold that day and instead of making his well being first they made the dress code priority. They forget to realize that he is attending a public school therefore he has the right of freedom of speech which includes the freedom to wear as he believes just as long as he does not hurt anyone. DO you think he was hurting anyone? Close Quote
