Summary

Sutherland Elementary is a K-6 public school serving about 360 students in Stockton's Lodi Unified School District, operating in a high-need community where most students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, the school faces challenges, with test scores in English, math, and science below district and state averages, and it has a significant issue with chronic student absences, though that rate has been improving. The school shows notable strengths, however, particularly in its work with English Language Learners, where its historical performance has been strong. There is also a bright spot in 4th-grade math, where students outperform both district and state averages, suggesting effective teaching at that grade level.

Interesting comparisons exist with nearby schools. For instance, Podesta Ranch Elementary, also in Lodi Unified and with similar resources, achieves higher academic results. Meanwhile, Aspire River Oaks Charter, a nearby charter school, posts much higher test scores with a similar student population and much lower absenteeism. Within its own district, Sutherland performs better than some schools with similar demographics, like Parklane Elementary and Oakwood Elementary, indicating it is overcoming some shared regional challenges.
