Summary:
Lincoln International High School is the sole public charter high school serving grades 9-12 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, with a total enrollment of 165 students. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.5, it is struggling to provide a high-quality education to its predominantly low-income student population, as evidenced by its significantly below-average test scores and graduation rates.
The school's 4-year graduation rate of 84.2% is below the state average, and its dropout rate of 4.4% is higher than the state average. Academically, Lincoln International High School lags far behind state averages, with only 15.69% of 11th graders proficient or better in Math and just 4.65% of 10th graders proficient or better in Reading. These low test scores suggest the school may need to implement more effective teaching strategies and provide additional support to help its students succeed.
The fact that 100% of Lincoln International High School students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch indicates that the school serves a high-need population, which can present unique challenges in terms of academic achievement and access to resources. While the school's low student-teacher ratio could be a positive factor, it does not appear to be translating into improved outcomes for students. Overall, the data suggests that Lincoln International High School requires significant intervention and support to address its academic and student retention challenges.
