Lincoln Park Middle School

Summary:

Lincoln Park Middle School is a public middle school serving 1,105 students in grades 6-8 in Lincoln Park, Michigan, which is part of the Allen Park Public Schools district, ranked 464 out of 610 districts in the state.

The school faces several key challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 27.4% to 49.4% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average. Academically, Lincoln Park Middle School's proficiency rates on state assessments are consistently lower than state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with only 18.2% of 6th-grade students proficient in English Language Arts in 2023-2024, compared to 37.5% statewide. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with African American and Hispanic students performing better than their White and multi-racial peers, but all groups still lagging behind state averages.

When compared to nearby middle schools, such as Allen Park Middle School and Stout Middle School, Lincoln Park Middle School generally performs worse on academic measures, has higher chronic absenteeism rates, and serves a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students. This suggests that the school may face unique challenges related to its student population and community context that require specialized interventions and support.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
