Abraham Lincoln Elementary

Abraham Lincoln Elementary sits in the eastern reaches of Sacramento, in a neighborhood that's working hard and growing steadily, but families here should know that academic performance scores fall well below state averages across English, math, and science. It may be a good fit for families who are deeply involved in their child's education and able to supplement learning at home or through tutoring, and who value being part of a tight-knit community school with room to grow. Sacramento itself offers a lot — light rail access, proximity to the American River Parkway, and a genuinely diverse, affordable city — but parents considering this school should go in with eyes open and plenty of questions for the front office.
