As part of the Madison School District, Lincoln Elementary has consistently ranked among the top elementary schools in the state, with a high of 10th out of 171 Idaho elementary schools in the 2018-2019 school year.

Lincoln Elementary's academic performance is particularly noteworthy, with students consistently outperforming the state and district averages in both math and English language arts proficiency across all grade levels.

While Lincoln Elementary consistently outperforms the state and district averages, some nearby schools, such as Hibbard Elementary and Adams Elementary, also demonstrate strong academic performance, with proficiency rates comparable to or even exceeding Lincoln's in certain subjects and grade levels. However, Lincoln Elementary's statewide ranking has declined in recent years, from a high of 10th in 2018-2019 to 117th in 2024-2025, which could be due to the school's relatively stable performance while other schools in the state have improved. Additionally, the school's student-teacher ratio has increased from 20.3 in 2023-2024 to 22.8 in 2021-2022, which is higher than the ratios of some nearby schools, such as South Fork Elementary (17.7) and Adams Elementary (17.5).
