Summary:
In zip code 76903, there is one middle school, Lincoln Middle, serving grades 6 through 8 in San Angelo, Texas, as part of the San Angelo Independent School District (Isd).
Lincoln Middle has 781 students and a student-teacher ratio of 14.8:1. The school serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged population, with nearly 74% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. The school’s state ranking has been consistently low, placing in the 6th to 11th percentile over the last three years. Overall proficiency rates are well below district and state averages, with average reading proficiency at 34.6% and average math proficiency at just 16.0% for the 2025-2026 school year. The dropout rate of 1.7% is higher than the district average of 1.1%.
The most notable finding is a stark contrast in math performance. While only 25% of 8th graders were proficient in grade-level math, an impressive 89.47% of students taking the Algebra I End-of-Course exam were proficient. This suggests the school successfully accelerates a small group of high-performing students into advanced math, while the majority of students struggle with core subjects. Year-over-year improvement has been minimal, with only marginal gains in some areas like 6th grade reading. The school’s spending per student is $8,961, and the combination of low academic outcomes and high economic disadvantage points to significant challenges that require targeted, school-wide interventions.
