At the high school level, Lincoln East High School stands out as the highest-ranked school in the 68510 zip code, ranking 46th out of 215 Nebraska high schools.
However, the data also reveals significant performance disparities between the schools, with some institutions like Elliott Elementary and Lincoln High School lagging behind the district and state averages in test scores. These differences appear to be correlated with socioeconomic factors, as the schools with the highest free/reduced lunch rates, such as Randolph Elementary and Lincoln High School, tend to have lower academic performance. Overall, the data suggests the need for further investigation into the drivers of these performance disparities to ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students in the Lincoln Public Schools district.
