District-Level NCES Analysis
Lincoln County Sd operates 18 public schools serving 5,122 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Oregon. The school portfolio breaks down into 6 elementary, 5 high, 4 middle, 3 combined schools, a compact enough portfolio that families can compare every campus directly before they move, rent, or enrol. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Lincoln County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $14,560 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 194 Oregon districts by per-pupil spending. See how Oregon compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 53.7% local, 31.1% state, and 15.2% federal, a local-revenue-heavy mix that leaves the district more exposed to property-tax swings and local ballot measures than state-funded peers. The district's equity score is 50/100, ranked #75 of 160 in Oregon against a state average of 50, in line with the typical spread seen across the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 3 of 18 schools offering Advanced Placement (6 AP courses district-wide), a 309.7:1 student-counselor ratio, somewhat above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 56.6% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 62.8% White, 20.4% Hispanic or Latino, 0.6% Asian across the district's schools.

Lincoln County Sd school enrollment varies 35× across entities
Lincoln County Sd school enrollment ranges from 19 students (lowest) to 669 students (highest), a spread of 650 students. That ratio is among the widest observed and reflects extreme enrollment heterogeneity, the district operates both small specialty programs and large comprehensive campuses inside a single budgeting unit. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Lincoln County Sd has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 72.5% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch
free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015). Eligibility here is approaching the 75% concentration-grant threshold; it does not yet unlock the extra funding tier but sits meaningfully above the baseline 50% majority mark. Regions with eligibility this high typically draw a substantially larger federal funding share relative to their local tax base, which can either offset or reinforce existing gaps depending on allocation policy.
Lincoln County Sd student-counselor ratio is 310:1 — near the typical range (US average ~408) — within the typical range for U.S. public districts
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Variation between sub-units within Lincoln County Sd is typically wider than the Lincoln County Sd-aggregate figure suggests.
Lincoln County Sd chronic absenteeism rate is 56.6% — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
Lincoln County Sd has 18 schools, including 5 high, 6 elementary, 4 middle, 3 combined. Total enrollment is 5,122 students.
