Summary

Lincoln Elementary in Hoquiam, Washington, serves 233 students in grades 2–5 in the Hoquiam area and is part of the Hoquiam School District. The school serves a high-need population, with 75.54% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Its student-teacher ratio was 16.7:1, and per-student spending was $21,441. Lincoln ranks at the 16th percentile statewide for 2025–2026, an improvement from the 9th and 10th percentiles in the previous two years, although it remains below the state’s typical performance level.

Lincoln’s strongest comparative area is mathematics. In 2025–2026, 24.05% of students were proficient in math, above the district average of 19.39%. The school also exceeded the nearby Central Elementary School in every tested subject: 28.48% versus 25.48% in English Language Arts, 24.05% versus 17.95% in math, and 32.20% versus 20.41% in science. Lincoln’s fifth-grade ELA result, at 33.90%, was its strongest grade-level result, while fourth-grade ELA and math were both 20.41%. Overall, however, Lincoln trailed Washington averages by about 19 to 24 percentage points across the three subjects.

Science is the clearest concern. Proficiency fell from 49.02% in 2022–2023 to 32.20% in 2025–2026, while math showed a modest recovery from 22.15% to 24.05% over the past year. Lincoln is competitive with some nearby schools, including Robert Gray Elementary in ELA and math, but trails stronger performers such as Simpson Avenue Elementary and McDermoth Elementary. The most important improvement priorities are fourth-grade instruction, science achievement, and maintaining the recent gains in math and overall statewide ranking.
