Houston

Public Grades K-8
Summary

Houston is an elementary school located in Acampo, CA that serves grades KG-8 with a total enrollment of 150 students. The school is part of the Lodi Unified School District, which is ranked 951 out of 1568 districts in California and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Houston's performance is concerning, with significantly higher chronic absenteeism rates, consistently lower test scores, and lower student group performance compared to the district and state averages. For example, in 2023-2024, only 9.3% of Houston students were proficient or better in Smarter Balanced Assessments/English Language Arts/Literacy, compared to 37.78% for Lodi Unified and 47.04% for California. The school also has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 82.67% in 2022-2023, which is significantly higher than the nearby Oak View Elementary (42.48%) and Clyde W. Needham Elementary (96.54%).

Houston's performance has been consistently low, ranking in the bottom 20% of California elementary schools for the past several years, and the gap between the school and the district/state averages appears to be widening over time. The high rates of chronic absenteeism and free/reduced lunch suggest that the school may be facing significant socioeconomic and other challenges that are impacting student learning and achievement. While Houston's performance is concerning, the nearby schools in the Lodi Unified District also generally perform below the state average, indicating that the district as a whole may be struggling. However, the higher-performing Oak View Elementary, which is in a different district, suggests that strong academic performance is possible in the region.
