As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

Open Quote The school is divided into two sections, just like in all the schools. There is a good section with wonderful and 90+ average students, and there is a section of kids that don't try and think they can pass classed while not doing work. Those kids are the ones that fail. The teachers in Lincoln are strict and love to teach. They want the students to excel in their learning, so they give a lot of work and fail the kids that don't do work. Medal detectors are installed in the school to make sure that children will be safe.In Lincoln, there are a lot of advanced classes like the Vet Science program, Medical ips, photography, and many more AP classes. There is also a business program that is ranked #2 in the whole state. There are a lot of rumors about the school being bad, but in my opinion, as a 98 average student , I think this school is for children that want to work hard. This school provides many opportunities to kids, and it even has many sport activities. Your child will be safe in that school. Close Quote

Open Quote My opinion about this school is disappointing. This year is the beginning of my Junior year and there had been changes through out the years but they're not beneficial to me. My freshman year was good but after that it went downhill. This isn't based on anything personal but sometimes I despise this school. Also, the principal of Abraham Lincoln is friendly but takes everything as a joke which isn't helpful at all. I've always wanted to transfer out of this school but it's never simple. My performance in this school is great but this school can do way better than what they're doing now! Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
