Summary:
The three schools in Fairview Public School District serve students from prekindergarten through grade 8: Number Three School serves PK–4, Lincoln School serves grades 3–8, and Lincoln School Annex serves PK–K. The main academic pattern in 2025–26 is that every reported regular-grade ELA and math proficiency rate is below its state comparison, while Lincoln’s Algebra I results stand out as a strong exception.
Lincoln School leads on the reported Algebra I results: 80% were proficient, compared with 40% statewide on the End-of-Course exam, and 80% were proficient in grade 8, versus 75% statewide. Its regular-grade results are weaker: ELA proficiency in grades 5–8 ranged from 28% to 32%, and math from 13% to 23%, all below state rates. Number Three School has similar grade 3–4 results to the district, but its ELA rates were 23% and 24% and its math rates 19% and 23%—between 23 and 30 points below state rates. Attendance is the clearest concern at Lincoln School Annex: chronic absenteeism was 20% in 2024–25, compared with 7% at Lincoln, 9% at Number Three, and 14% statewide.
Results improved most clearly in ELA: across comparable grades, the average school-to-state gap narrowed from 30 points in 2024–25 to 24 points in 2025–26. Math did not follow that pattern; its average gap widened from 20 to 21 points. SchoolDigger’s rankings also moved up: Number Three rose from the 7th to the 9th percentile, and Lincoln from the 15th to the 19th; the district is in the 5th percentile. In 2024–25, student-teacher ratios were 15.5 at Number Three, 11.5 at Lincoln, and 12.2 at the Annex. The schools’ 2024–25 free/reduced lunch eligible shares were 80%, 76%, and 82%, respectively; these figures describe context, not a cause of results. Lincoln’s grade 3–4 test scores are state-suppressed, and the Annex has no supplied test-score results.
