Valley Robotics Academy outperforms the Lodi Unified District and the state of California in several key areas. The school had an 83.3% four-year graduation rate in 2022-2023, significantly higher than the 57.4% rate at the nearby Independence school, also in the Lodi Unified District. Valley Robotics Academy also had a lower 3.3% dropout rate compared to 19.7% at Independence. While the school's 28.8% chronic absenteeism rate in 2022-2023 was lower than Independence's 51.7%, it was still higher than the state average.
Academically, Valley Robotics Academy outperformed the district and state in test scores, with 57.89% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts/Literacy, compared to 45.17% in the district and 55.73% statewide. The school also had stronger 3rd-grade math and 11th-grade science proficiency rates. However, the school still lags behind some nearby charter schools like Rio Valley Charter and Vista Oaks Charter in terms of test scores and graduation rates. The school's high 60.63% free/reduced lunch rate suggests it serves a predominantly low-income student population, which may contribute to the challenges it faces in maintaining consistent attendance and academic achievement.
