Summary:
ZIP code 95242 has 10 schools: five elementary schools, two middle schools, one high school and two alternative schools, serving students from elementary through high school. Nine schools have 2025–2026 test results; Vista Oaks Charter has results through 2024–2025 only. The clearest overall pattern is that the nine-school average fell below California’s in all three subjects: about 47% in ELA versus 49% statewide, 35% in math versus 38%, and 29% in science versus 36%, making science the largest average gap.
Vinewood Elementary is the strongest current all-subject performer, leading the nine schools with about 64% in ELA, 64% in math and 54% in science—14, 26 and 18 percentage points above state results, respectively. Lodi High is second in ELA at 62%, but its math and science results are below state levels. At the lower end, Lodi Middle has the lowest ELA and science results, at 32% and 17%; Independence is lowest in math at 18%. In shared middle-school grades, Millswood Middle scored higher than Lodi Middle in both ELA and math, though both schools remained below state results.
Across these same nine schools, average results improved by about 2 points in ELA and 4 in science from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, while math slipped by about 1 point; the average gaps to the state narrowed in ELA and science but widened in math. Individual results varied: Lodi High gained 18 points in ELA, Vinewood gained 11 in science, and Millswood gained 5 in math, while Vinewood’s math result fell by 5 points. As context, 2024–2025 free/reduced lunch eligible figures were 47% at Vinewood and 79% at both Lodi Middle and Woodbridge; these figures alone do not explain school outcomes. SchoolDigger ranked Vinewood in the 84th, 85th and 84th percentiles across the three listed years, consistently identifying it as a strong performer.
