Lincoln Middle

Summary:

Lincoln Middle is a public middle school located in San Angelo, Texas, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 844 students. The school is part of the San Angelo Independent School District, which is ranked 768 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite serving a predominantly Hispanic (76.54%) and economically disadvantaged (78.32% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch) student population, Lincoln Middle consistently underperforms compared to the district and state averages on STAAR tests across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 32.44% of 6th-grade students at Lincoln Middle were proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to 44.71% for the district and 54.45% for the state. The school has a very low statewide ranking, consistently placing in the bottom 10-15% of Texas middle schools, and struggles to support the academic achievement of its diverse student population, with particularly low rankings for African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students.

When comparing Lincoln Middle to other nearby middle schools in the San Angelo ISD, such as Glenn Middle and Lone Star Middle, the performance gap is quite significant, with these other schools consistently outperforming Lincoln Middle on STAAR tests and having higher statewide rankings. The relatively high student-teacher ratio and lower per-student spending at Lincoln Middle compared to the district average may be contributing factors to the school's academic struggles, suggesting a need for more equitable resource allocation to support the diverse needs of its student population.

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.
