Summary

Lincoln School is an elementary school located in Peoria, Illinois, serving grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 757 students. The school is part of the Peoria School District 150, which is ranked 769 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Unfortunately, Lincoln School has consistently ranked in the bottom 5-10% of Illinois elementary schools over the past decade, also earning a 0-star rating.

Academically, Lincoln School significantly underperforms compared to the Peoria School District 150 and the state of Illinois in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 12.4% of Lincoln School students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 29% for the district and 53.1% for the state. The school also struggles with extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.4% to 42.8% over the past few years.

Interestingly, the nearby schools within the Peoria School District 150, such as The Elise Ford Allen Academy, Hines Primary School, and Franklin Primary School, also perform poorly compared to the state, but generally outperform Lincoln School in academic proficiency and other key metrics. The persistent underperformance of Lincoln School and other schools in the Peoria School District 150 suggests a need for the district to re-evaluate its strategies and allocate resources to address the unique challenges faced by these schools and their students.
