Summary

Morada Middle is a public school for grades 7-8 in Stockton, serving about 685 students within the Lodi Unified School District, where a high percentage of families face economic challenges.

Academically, the school performs below state averages, with about one-third of students proficient in English and fewer in math and science; it also has higher-than-average chronic absenteeism, though this rate has improved significantly in recent years. Compared to other middle schools in Lodi Unified, such as Christa McAuliffe Middle and Sierra Middle, Morada Middle's academic results are generally lower, ranking 5th out of 6 similar district schools.

Notably, the nearby Aspire Benjamin Holt Middle, a charter school with a similar student population, achieves stronger academic results, suggesting different approaches can impact outcomes. The school shows particular strength in supporting English Language Learners, but other student groups need more targeted help. While the school's statewide ranking has been inconsistent year-to-year, its recent progress in improving student attendance is a positive sign that could be a foundation for broader academic improvement.
