Lodi Unified

Lodi Unified includes 46 schools—30 elementary, six middle, seven high and three alternative schools—serving students from elementary through high-school grades. The 2025–2026 All Grades results are below state figures on average: school results average about 38% in ELA, 29% in math and 24% in science, compared with state results of 49%, 38% and 36%. The most important takeaway is how widely results differ from one school to another.

Elkhorn is the clearest overall standout, leading the schools in all three subjects with 95% in ELA, 89% in math and 87% in science—about 46, 51 and 51 points above the state, respectively. Among high schools reporting 11th-grade scores, Middle College High leads with 93% in ELA, 61% in math and 75% in science. Vinewood Elementary also exceeds the state in all three subjects, at 64%, 64% and 54%. At the low end, Plaza Robles High reports 3% in ELA and 3% in science, while Turner Academy reports 0% in math. Those results are about 46, 33 and 38 points below the corresponding state figures.

School averages rose from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026 by about 1 point in ELA, 1 in math and 2 in science, but the gap with the state narrowed slightly in ELA and widened in math and science. Individual schools moved more sharply: Lodi High gained 18 ELA points and Tokay High gained 17, while Plaza Robles fell 22. SchoolDigger ranks Elkhorn 5th of 2,703 middle schools and at the 100th percentile, and Middle College 46th of 2,137 high schools and at the 98th percentile; both have five stars. Context differs too: 2024–2025 free/reduced lunch eligible figures include 47% at Vinewood and 73% at Joe Serna Junior Charter, while student–teacher ratios are 25.8 at Elkhorn and 32.1 at Middle College.
