Summary

Heritage Elementary is a K–6 school in Lodi, California, serving 432 students in Lodi Unified. Its 2025–26 proficiency results were below both the state and district in English, math, and science. Science is the clearest concern: Heritage was 24 percentage points below the state and 14 points below the district in that subject.

English is Heritage’s strongest subject compared with nearby schools, while science is its weakest. In 2025–26, 34% of students were proficient in English, compared with 49% statewide and 40% districtwide; the nearby-school average was 37%. Math proficiency was 26%, versus 38% statewide, 30% districtwide, and a nearby average of 32%. Science proficiency was 12%, versus 36% statewide, 26% districtwide, and a nearby average of 23%; only two of the 10 nearby schools scored lower. Results vary by grade: sixth-grade English proficiency was 58%, above the state, district, and every nearby school, while fourth-grade English and math proficiency were both below all but one nearby school in English and all nearby schools in math.

Scores improved modestly from 2022–23 to 2025–26—by about 1 percentage point in English, 1 in math, and 2 in science—but the state’s gains were larger, widening the school–state gaps in all three subjects. SchoolDigger placed Heritage at the 29th percentile with 1 star in 2025–26, up from the 18th percentile the year before, but still in the lower half of nearby schools. The student-teacher ratio was 25.4 in 2024–25, among the highest locally. That year, 93% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, the second-highest rate among nearby schools. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of how well the school serves English Language Learner Students was at the 81st percentile in 2023–24, compared with the school’s overall 40th percentile; its measure for Asian Students was at the 7th percentile in 2021–22, versus the overall 37th percentile that year. Chronic absenteeism also rose recently, from 23% in 2023–24 to 28% in 2025–26, the highest rate among nearby schools.
