Dear Lodi USD Parent/Guardians,

Every year, California students take several statewide tests. When combined with other measures such as grades, class work, and teacher observations, these tests give families and teachers a more complete picture of their child’s learning. You can use the results to identify where your child is doing well and where they might need more support. Your child may be taking one or more of the following:

• California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP)
• English Language Proficiency Assessments for California (ELPAC)
• Physical Fitness Test (PFT)

To see the full information on the above assessments, please visit our Assessment, Research, and Evaluation (ARE) Department website. Please select the Annual Notification of Testing, 2024-2025 link.

Have you reported your students absence? Students' Absence?

To report your student's absence please call the attendance office or email. Lakewoodattendance@lodiusd.net (209) 331-7348

You have TEN DAYS to clear a student’s absence. Medical notes must be presented to excuse any medical appointment. Please include the following information when reporting an absence:

• Reason for absence
• Student's full name

3rd and 4th Grade Recorder!

Your student is learning to play the soprano recorder in Music Class. If you or your student has a soprano recorder they are encouraged to bring it to music class.

If your student has purchased a recorder, it is being stored in the music room for safe keeping. The recorder will be available for your student to bring home at the conclusion of our unit.

5th and 6th Grade Recorder!

Your student will be learning to play the soprano recorder in Music Class. If you or your student has a soprano recorder they are encouraged to bring it to music class.

If your child does not have a recorder they can purchase one from me for $6.00. You may send exact cash or check (made out to LUSD). Please put money in an envelope with the student’s name and classroom teacher on the front. Students who purchase a recorder will be allowed to take the instrument home at the conclusion of our unit. The last day to purchase a recorder is April 18. If you choose not to purchase one, your child will be expected to use a school recorder during recorder lessons.

This is always an exciting instrument to learn how to play. The students learn about note reading, breathing and rhythm patterns, which are part of our Classroom Music Curriculum.
