Summary:
The 62656 zip code area is home to a single public high school, Lincoln Community High School, which serves grades 9-12. The school is part of the Lincoln CHSD 404 district, which is ranked 512 out of 811 districts in Illinois and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Lincoln Community High School has an enrollment of 779 students and a student-teacher ratio of 12.8 to 1. The school's performance on standardized tests is generally below the state averages, particularly in mathematics, with only 29.3% of students proficient or better in ACT/Math compared to the 39.3% state average. The school also has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4%, which may be contributing to the lower test scores and graduation rates. However, the school's four-year graduation rate is 89.0%, which is relatively strong.
Nearly half (47.5%) of the school's students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students. The school's spending per student is relatively high at $17,610, which may suggest a focus on providing resources and support to its students. Despite this, the academic performance data suggests that these resources may not be translating into improved student outcomes, and further analysis and targeted interventions may be necessary to help the school better support its students and improve their academic achievement.
