Summary

Lincoln Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Casper, Wyoming, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 447 students. The school is part of the Natrona County School District #1, which is ranked 36 out of 43 districts in Wyoming and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite its higher per-student spending, Lincoln Elementary School consistently underperforms the district and state averages in proficiency rates for ELA, Math, and Science across grades 3-5. The school's performance is particularly low in 4th grade ELA, where the proficiency rate was only 24% compared to the district at 48.2% and the state at 51.3%. While the school's Hispanic student population performs relatively well, ranking in the top half of Wyoming elementary schools, the school struggles with its Special Education and Low Socioeconomic Status student populations.

Nearby schools like Summit Elementary School and Verda James Elementary significantly outperform Lincoln Elementary across all grade levels and subject areas, with proficiency rates that are 10-20 percentage points higher. This suggests that Lincoln Elementary may be able to learn from the strategies used by these higher-performing schools to improve outcomes for its own students.
