Summary:

Lodi School District has seven schools serving elementary through high school, with 3,082 students in all. The elementary results vary considerably by school and subject, while the middle and high schools each show some notable strengths alongside weaker results. The biggest recent districtwide concern is elementary ELA: across the same four schools and grades 3–5, the average fell from 67% in 2024–2025 to 51% in 2025–2026, reducing its advantage over the state from 17 points to 2.

Wilson School leads fourth- and fifth-grade math, with 60% and 73% proficiency—14 and 27 points above state results. Washington School stands out in fifth-grade science at 42%, 15 points above the state and 25 points above Columbus School, whose 17% is the lowest elementary result in that grade. Hilltop School has the strongest third-grade math result at 58%, but the lowest reported ELA results in all three elementary grades. At the middle school, Thomas Jefferson Middle School has 100% proficiency in both reported Algebra I groupings, compared with state rates of 75% and 40%. Lodi High School is strongest in Geometry: 84% in grade 9 and 76% end-of-course, respectively 34 and 25 points above state results.

Trends differ by subject and school: elementary math held nearly steady, averaging 50% in 2024–2025 and 2025–2026, while science slipped from 31% to 26%; Washington’s fifth-grade science result rose 15 points as Columbus’s fell 19. High school results also diverged: grade 9 Algebra I rose 18 points, while grade 9 ELA fell 5 and Geometry end-of-course fell 13. SchoolDigger’s 2025–2026 rankings place Wilson at the 62nd percentile and Columbus at the 44th; these rankings are separate from test scores. For context, all five elementary schools reported free/reduced lunch eligible figures for 2024–2025, ranging from 60% at Columbus to 69% at Roosevelt School; their student–teacher ratios ranged from 11.3 at Roosevelt to 15.5 at Columbus. Roosevelt’s latest usable test results are from 2024–2025, as its reported 2025–2026 third-grade ELA and math results are suppressed.
