A grade the school doesn't teach has no row. “Suppressed” marks a result CDE blanks because fewer than 11 students tested (CDE’s reporting rule); “none tested” marks a grade CDE lists with no students tested; “not on file” marks a result missing from the records we hold. None of them means zero.

Each year is a different group of students.
In English, about as expected; in math, below what the state expected. California sets an expected score for each student from that student’s own score the year before. In 2025, students here in grades 7 and 8 scored −5 points against that expected score in English, which the state calls Average. In math, they scored −7 points, which it calls Moderate.

California uses each student’s English and math scores from the year before to set an expected score, based on how students with similar earlier scores did across the state. Zero would mean students here scored as expected. In English they scored 5 points below that expected score, and in math 7 points below it.
The state sorts every school’s growth result into five growth levels, from Minimal to Exceptional.
Here, as at most schools, the state’s figure blends the two most recent years, so it moves more slowly than one year’s scores.
What you can do
The state has Christa McAuliffe in extra targeted support; Lodi Unified’s board decides its plan.
2025–26 is its 4th year in a row in this support. The state named it because results were low for students of two or more races. This support comes with a school improvement plan, which must use approaches with evidence behind them and look at how money and staff are divided among schools. Ask the principal to see the school improvement plan.

The state is giving Lodi Unified extra help in 2026. It qualified on the 2025 California School Dashboard. The county office must help the district for at least three years, including a review of its yearly plan.

Lodi Unified’s board must adopt its yearly plan (LCAP) by July 1, after at least one public hearing at an earlier meeting.
How to take part
Life at school
90 in 100 students were chronically absent in 2025–26.
State attendance and suspension records, 2025–26
That means they missed 10% or more of school days. 16.3% of students were suspended at least once in 2025–26.
674 of 746 students were chronically absent, meaning they missed 10% or more of school days.
16.3%
of students were suspended at least once (124 of 763).
Ask: How does the school bring back students who are missing school, and what has it changed?
Ask current families how the school keeps them informed, and what happened when their child needed help. Ask staff how long teachers tend to stay.
