Summary

Abraham Lincoln Elementary School is a public elementary school in Jamestown, New York, serving 401 students in grades PK-4 as part of the Jamestown City School District.

The school has shown a mixed performance on state assessments, with its ranking among New York elementary schools ranging from 666 to 1701 in recent years. However, in the 2024-2025 school year, Abraham Lincoln Elementary School's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math for 3rd and 4th grades are expected to be higher than the district and state averages. The school's performance has varied across different student subgroups, with female students generally outperforming male students and Hispanic students ranking higher than White students in recent years. The school's performance for students with special education needs and those from low socioeconomic backgrounds has been relatively lower compared to other subgroups.

Compared to nearby schools within the Jamestown City School District, Abraham Lincoln Elementary School generally performs better on state assessments. However, some schools outside the district, such as Bemus Point Elementary School and Sinclairville Elementary School, have outperformed Abraham Lincoln Elementary School. The school's high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 69.83% receiving free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024, may contribute to its lower performance compared to some higher-performing schools in the region. Despite the significant increase in per-student spending at Abraham Lincoln Elementary School over the years, the school's performance on state assessments has not shown a corresponding improvement, suggesting that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution to improving academic outcomes.
