Summary:
In the 93662 zip code of Selma, California, there is one public middle school, Abraham Lincoln Middle, which serves grades 7 and 8 for the entire community within the Selma Unified school district.
Abraham Lincoln Middle is a large school with nearly 900 students across two grades, where the vast majority of students come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Academically, the school shows a notable pattern: its English Language Arts scores are close to the state average and are stronger than the district's, but performance in Mathematics and Science falls significantly below state averages. The school spends more per student than the state average and has a slightly lower rate of chronic student absenteeism compared to both its district and the state.
When compared to the broader Selma Unified district, which ranks in the bottom quarter statewide, Abraham Lincoln Middle consistently outperforms the district average in all core subjects. However, the school's overall state ranking has fluctuated in recent years. Key takeaways for parents are that the school is a relative strength within its district, particularly in English, but faces clear challenges in math and science achievement that are not fully explained by its level of funding.
