The Socioeconomically Disadvantaged student group in the Lincoln Unified School District had a unchanged graduation rate, 90.5 percent, than the overall district's rate of 91.4 percent for the 2017-2018 school year, according to the California Department of Education.

According to CDE data, graduation rates indicate an increase in disproportional academic performance between white, Black, Latino, and English-learning students.

According to the National Centre for Education Statistics, in 2019 American Indian and Alaska Native students were the most at risk of dropping out.

Angela Johnson, a research scientist at NWEA, says “taken together, prior research suggests that inequities exist in the quality of education experienced by current ELsand non-ELs and that these inequities explain achievement gaps in middle and early high school” in The Effects of English Learner Classification on High School Graduation and College Attendance.
