Summary

Lincoln Middle School is a public school in Clarkston, Washington, serving 346 students in grades 7–8 within the Clarkston School District. The school serves a community with significant economic need, with 56.94% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–25. Its current statewide standing is modest: 308th out of 514 Washington middle schools, placing it at the 40th percentile and earning a two-star SchoolDigger rating. The district ranks somewhat higher, at the 43rd percentile statewide.

Academically, English language arts is the school’s strongest tested subject. In 2025–26, 47.34% of students were proficient in ELA, close to the district’s 48.36% but below Washington’s 52.81%. Math is the clearest challenge: 26.92% were proficient, compared with 33.83% districtwide and 43.11% statewide. Science fell between the two, at 42.05%, and has been relatively stable or improving over time. Grade-level comparisons are somewhat more favorable: Lincoln was slightly above the district in both grades for ELA and math, as well as in 8th-grade science, although it remained below state results. Recent trends are concerning, particularly in math, which fell from 33.53% in 2024–25 to 26.92% in 2025–26. ELA also declined over the longer recent period, while science remained near 42%.

Results vary among student groups. The low socioeconomic status subgroup ranked at the 47th percentile, above the schoolwide result, while special education ranked at the 12th percentile and warrants close attention. Female students ranked at the 43rd percentile compared with the 30th percentile for male students; subgroup results should be monitored over multiple years before drawing firm conclusions. Per-student spending reached $18,096 in 2023–24, while the student-teacher ratio rose to 18.8 in 2024–25 from 15.5 in 2022–23. Overall, the most important improvement priorities appear to be mathematics, special education support, and maintaining progress for all student groups. No other schools were identified within 20 miles, so direct nearby-school comparisons are unavailable.
