Lincoln

The Lincoln School District in Rhode Island consists of 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students from kindergarten through 12th grade.

The standout schools in the district are Lincoln Central Elementary, which is the highest-performing elementary school, and Lincoln Senior High School, which is the top-performing high school. Both schools have significantly higher test scores than the district and state averages, with Lincoln Central Elementary ranking 18th out of 167 Rhode Island elementary schools and Lincoln Senior High School ranking 7th out of 60 Rhode Island high schools. However, the other elementary schools in the district show more mixed results, with proficiency rates ranging from 22.7% to 52.9% in ELA and 32.5% to 50% in math.

The district's student population is relatively diverse, with white students making up 70-83% of the student body, followed by Hispanic (6-13%), African American (2-8%), and Asian (3-6%) students. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch also varies significantly across the schools, from a low of 7.71% at Lincoln Central Elementary to a high of 44.93% at Northern Lincoln Elementary. This suggests there may be socioeconomic disparities within the district that could be impacting student outcomes, and further analysis would be needed to understand the relationship between student demographics, school resources, and academic performance.
