Elementary Schools in Lodi Unified


Summary:

This analysis examines 31 elementary schools serving grades K-6 within the Lodi Unified district, a large system where academic performance varies widely and economic disadvantage is common, with an average of 76% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Parents will find a distinct range of school environments, from top performers like Vinewood Elementary, which leads the district in test scores and has very low chronic absenteeism, to consistently strong schools such as John Muir Elementary and the large, solid-performing Ellerth E. Larson Elementary. Other notable schools include Joe Serna Junior Charter, which excels in student attendance, and Podesta Ranch Elementary, which shows strong reading scores.

In contrast, several schools face significant challenges, including Parklane Elementary and Creekside Elementary, which have low test scores and high chronic absenteeism. The very small Turner Academy at Tokay Colony has the district's lowest scores despite the highest per-student spending. Overall, the district average for chronic absenteeism is above the state average, and math and science scores are particular areas for improvement across many schools.
