Summary

Westwood Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 463 students in Stockton, CA, as part of the Lodi Unified School District, and operates in a context where many local schools face significant academic challenges.

Academically, Westwood's test scores in English, Math, and Science are below state and district averages, though it performs better than some nearby schools like Clairmont Elementary and Parklane Elementary. A major area of concern is chronic absenteeism, with 33.1% of students missing significant school, a rate higher than the district average and schools like George Lincoln Mosher. The school spends more per student than other local Lodi Unified schools, but this higher spending has not led to top-tier results. Performance varies greatly by grade, with 4th grade showing strength but 3rd and 5th grades struggling significantly.

Notably, Westwood shows a clear strength in effectively teaching English Language Learners, ranking in the 79th percentile statewide for this group. However, it shows a large gender gap, with educational effectiveness for female students ranking much lower than for male students. For context, two high-performing nearby charter schools, Aspire Vincent Shalvey Academy and Aspire River Oaks Charter, achieve much higher proficiency rates with similar student demographics and much lower absenteeism, offering a local comparison for potential practices.
