Lodi School District operates 5 public schools serving 1,491 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Wisconsin. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 elementary, 1 high, 1 other, 1 middle schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 1,461 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Columbia County County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $15,390 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 62.7% local, 28.4% state, and 8.9% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration. Average teacher compensation clocks in at $79,550 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 23/100, ranked #354 of 403 in Wisconsin against a state average of 50 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

Demographically, the student body averages 89.8% White, 5.0% Hispanic or Latino, 1.5% Asian across the district's schools.
Lodi High accounts for 30.4% of all Lodi School District student enrollment
That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means Lodi School District-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: high. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.

Lodi School District school enrollment ranges from 74 students (lowest) to 444 students (highest), a spread of 370 students.

Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Lodi School District student-counselor ratio is 596:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment — districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
Lodi School District chronic absenteeism rate is 10.6% — low (typically associated with lower-than-average attendance disruption; districts in this range often have attendance interventions, robust transportation, or smaller catchments that reduce barriers)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason — illness, family obligations, or disengagement Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.
