Summary

Lincoln Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-4 in Hudson, Michigan, with an enrollment of around 450 students. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of Michigan elementary schools over the past decade, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Lincoln Elementary faces significant challenges related to chronic absenteeism, academic performance, and socioeconomic status of its student population. The school has had very high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 21.9% to 33.2% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools like Gier Elementary (29.5%) and Prairie Elementary (29.5%). Academically, Lincoln Elementary students perform well below state averages in both English Language Arts and Math on the M-Step assessments, with only 22.1% of 3rd graders and 19.8% of 4th graders proficient in ELA, compared to state averages of 38.9% and 42.4% respectively.

The school's high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 60.23% to 66.67% over the past few years, is significantly higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools like Onsted Elementary (49.15%) and Addison Elementary (57.74%). Despite the higher spending per student at Lincoln Elementary compared to the state average, the school's academic performance remains well below par, suggesting that factors beyond just funding, such as instructional practices, school climate, and family engagement, may be playing a significant role in student outcomes.
