Summary

Lincoln Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Roselawn, Indiana, serving 250 students in grades K-6. The school is part of the North Newton School Corporation, which is ranked 201 out of 380 school districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Lincoln Elementary School has a relatively high per-student spending of $12,028, the school's academic performance is a concern. Its proficiency rates in ILEARN English Language Arts (30.28%) and Math (34.51%) are well below the North Newton School Corporation averages (35.63% and 31.85%, respectively) and the state averages. Additionally, the school has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 17.8% to 27.0% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools like Morocco Elementary (17.8%) and Lake Village Elementary (17.8%).

The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Lincoln Elementary School, ranging from 53.1% to 59.6% over the past few years, may be a contributing factor to the school's academic and attendance challenges. This is significantly higher than the rates of nearby schools like Winfield Elementary (14.36%) and Lake Prairie Elementary (22.54%). Addressing the socioeconomic factors faced by the school's population could be a key step in improving student outcomes.

Lincoln elementary was the worst school ever. They like to listen but do not comply with what they tell you they will do. They have every answer on why and do not accept blame for anything. Thank god there is now open enrollment in IN. There are other schools in the next county that are actually closer but have a much better rating a more understanding and compassionate principal who cares for the kids best interest and not just the schools numbers or ratings.
