Summary:
The Clarkston School District in Washington state has one middle school, Lincoln Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. While Lincoln Middle School has some positive metrics, such as a relatively high percentage of students proficient in English Language Arts, it appears to be underperforming compared to other middle schools in the state.
Lincoln Middle School's overall state ranking has declined over the past three years, from 284 out of 541 middle schools in 2021-2022 to 319 out of 539 in 2022-2023 and 271 out of 535 in 2023-2024. The school's math and science proficiency rates are significantly lower than the state averages, with only 31.91% of students proficient or better in math and 40.49% proficient or better in science for all grades in 2023-2024, compared to the state averages of 41.68% and 49.73%, respectively.
Additionally, Lincoln Middle School has a relatively high percentage of students (60.38%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which is often an indicator of a higher-need student population. Despite the school's lower-than-average test scores, the spending per student ($16,766) is relatively high compared to the state average, suggesting that the school may need to re-evaluate how it allocates its resources to better support student learning and achievement.
