Summary

Abraham Lincoln is a PK–4 elementary school at 300 Chelmsford Street in Lowell, MA, serving 492 students as part of the Lowell district.

In 2025–2026, Abraham Lincoln ranked 759th of 899 Massachusetts schools (16th percentile, 1 star), placing it in the bottom fifth of the state and below the Lowell district’s rank of 273rd of 351 (22nd percentile, 1 star). Its all-grades MCAS proficiency was 19.51% in English Language Arts and 22.56% in math, compared with district rates of 27.26% and 32.38% and state rates of 40.03% and 41.11%. That makes it the lowest-performing among nearby schools in both subjects. For context, Charles W Morey, 0.61 miles away with almost the same enrollment, ranked 301st of 899 (67th percentile) with 44.38% ELA and 58.39% math, and Dr Gertrude Bailey, 1 mile away, ranked 395th of 899 (56th percentile) with 40.13% ELA and 50.32% math. Several nearby schools improved recently, while Abraham Lincoln declined from the 25th percentile in 2024–2025 to the 16th in 2025–2026.

Grade 3 is the clearest weak spot: in 2025–2026, grade 3 ELA was 11.11% and math 13.58%, far below district and state averages (district: 29.75% ELA, 35.07% math; state: 42.79% ELA, 42.19% math), while grade 4 ELA was 27.71%, above the district’s 25.89% but below the state’s 37.43%. The school’s English Language Learner subgroup is a relative strength, ranking 68th of 291 (77th percentile, 4 stars) in 2025–2026, though other subgroups, including students with disabilities and low-income students, rank lower and have declined. Student-teacher ratio (12.0 in 2024–2025) and per-student spending ($16,998 in 2020–2021) are mid-pack, so size and resources do not obviously explain the results. Free/reduced-lunch data are blank, so poverty context cannot be assessed from this data, and small subgroup counts should be interpreted cautiously.
