Summary

Lincoln Middle in San Angelo, TX, serves 781 students in grades 6-8 within the San Angelo Independent School District (Isd), and nearly 74% of its students qualify for free or reduced lunch, reflecting a predominantly low socio-economic status population.

Lincoln Middle presents a striking contrast in academic performance. On one hand, its Algebra I End-of-Course exam results are exceptional: 89.47% of students were proficient, which is three times higher than the district average (30.19%) and competitive with top-performing nearby schools like Wall Middle (100%) and Glenn Middle (91.75%). On the other hand, the school struggles significantly in core subjects for the general student population. For example, only 6.04% of 7th graders were proficient in math, and just 10.98% of 8th graders were proficient in science—both the lowest rates in the area. This creates a "tale of two schools," where advanced math students thrive while most students face serious challenges. Compared to other San Angelo ISD middle schools, Lincoln is the lowest-ranked overall (11th percentile), while Lone Star Middle (39th percentile) and Glenn Middle (52nd percentile) perform significantly better. The nearby Wall Middle (97th percentile) serves a more affluent population and achieves scores that are higher than Lincoln's best results in most subjects.

A major red flag is the dramatic shift in Special Education performance: Lincoln ranked in the 84th and 88th percentile statewide for this subgroup in 2023-2024 and 2024-2025, but plummeted to the 5th percentile in the most recent data. This volatility requires urgent investigation. While the school's Algebra I success is a clear strength to build upon, the primary focus must be on improving core instruction in reading and math for all students, especially those not on the advanced track.
