Lincoln Elementary School

Q: Is Lincoln Elementary School a good school?

Lincoln Elementary School ranks 282 nd of 389 Oklahoma elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 1 star out of 5.

Summary:

Lincoln Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Pryor, Oklahoma, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 620 students. The school is part of the Pryor School District, which is ranked 205 out of 342 districts in Oklahoma and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Lincoln Elementary School has consistently underperformed compared to the state and district averages in standardized test scores. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 39% of 4th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 40% in the Pryor district and 47% statewide. Similarly, only 29% of 4th-grade students were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 39% in the Pryor district and 40% statewide. The school's performance is particularly concerning for certain student subgroups, and its statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past decade.

When compared to other elementary schools in the Pryor district, Roosevelt Elementary School and Jefferson Elementary School, which are both within a 2-mile radius, have higher test scores and better overall rankings. However, there is some variability in the performance of different student subgroups at Lincoln Elementary School, suggesting that the school could potentially learn from its own successes and apply those strategies to other grade levels and subject areas.

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.
