Updated September 2026

Jeremiah Patterson, REALTOR and Vice President at Cornerstone Real Estate Group, helps buyers verify school assignments for Cabrillo Circle in Lodi, CA, where current property data commonly points to Vinewood Elementary, Millswood Middle, and Lodi High School. Because Lodi Unified boundaries can change, buyers should confirm the exact assigned schools for a specific property through the district's School Site Locator before making a decision.

"I like the house, but which schools would my kids actually attend?" That is one of the first questions buyers ask when they start looking seriously at Cabrillo Circle.

TL;DR: - Cabrillo Circle addresses commonly show Vinewood Elementary (grades K-6), Millswood Middle (grades 7-8), and Lodi High School (grades 9-12). - School attendance boundaries can change, so never assume the assigned school from a ZIP code or an old listing. - Confirm the exact assignment for any specific address using the Lodi Unified School Site Locator before writing an offer.

I'm Jeremiah Patterson, REALTOR and Vice President at Cornerstone Real Estate Group, and I help buyers and sellers in Lodi understand the details that can affect a real estate decision, including neighborhood location, school boundaries, property characteristics, and what needs to be verified before an offer is written.

Which schools commonly serve Cabrillo Circle in Lodi?

For addresses reviewed on Cabrillo Circle, the school pattern is consistent:

Vinewood Elementary School, grades K through 6
Millswood Middle School, grades 7 through 8
Lodi High School, grades 9 through 12

Multiple current property sources for addresses including 2026, 2108, 2220, 2308, and 2336 Cabrillo Circle identify those same three schools in connection with the properties, some specifically labeling them as serving or assigned schools (current property records and listing data).

That consistency is useful when you are first researching the neighborhood. It is not a substitute for checking the specific home you are considering.

Lodi Unified publishes its own School Site Locator specifically for this purpose. It allows you to enter a residential address and identify the resident schools associated with that location (Lodi Unified School District).

Why should you verify the exact address before buying?

School boundaries are not permanent. Districts can change attendance areas because of enrollment, capacity, new campuses, program changes, or other district decisions.

That means you should never buy a house based only on a listing portal, an old MLS entry, a neighbor's experience, or what someone remembers from several years ago. Use those sources for initial research, then use the Lodi Unified School Site Locator for the actual address.

This matters even when several homes on the same street appear to share the same pattern. If school assignment is important to your decision, the safest approach is to verify the individual property before you remove contingencies or make plans based on a specific school.

Where is Vinewood Elementary School?

Vinewood Elementary School is located at 1600 W Tokay St, Lodi, CA 95242. It is one of Lodi Unified's elementary schools in west Lodi (Lodi Unified School District, lodiusd.net/schools).

For Cabrillo Circle buyers, Vinewood often comes up because the school is physically close to the Kristmont Acres pocket. Current property data for numerous Cabrillo Circle addresses also identifies Vinewood as the elementary school associated with those homes.

I don't recommend choosing a home based on an online school rating. Ratings can change, different families value different programs, and a single number does not tell you whether a school is a good fit for your child.

A better approach is to verify the assignment, review information directly from the school and district, and visit the campus when possible.

Where is Millswood Middle School?

Millswood Middle School is at 233 N Mills Ave, Lodi, CA 95242. Lodi Unified lists Millswood among its middle schools, and current Cabrillo Circle property data repeatedly identifies it as the middle school serving these addresses (Lodi Unified School District).

That location makes sense geographically when you look at the west Lodi area around Cabrillo Circle, Mills Avenue, and the surrounding residential streets.

For a buyer with an elementary age child, it is worth checking more than today's elementary assignment. If you expect to stay in the home for years, verify the middle and high school assignments too so you understand the entire current progression.

Does Cabrillo Circle go to Lodi High or Tokay High?

Current property data for Cabrillo Circle consistently points to Lodi High School, not Tokay High School. Lodi High is located at 3 S Pacific Ave, Lodi, CA 95242 (Lodi Unified School District).

Tokay High School is another Lodi Unified high school serving the Lodi area and is located at 1111 W. Century Boulevard, Lodi (Wikipedia / Lodi Unified).

This is exactly why buyers should not assume that the closest well known west Lodi high school is automatically the assigned school. Attendance boundaries do not always follow the simple rule of whichever school looks closest.

For Cabrillo Circle, the current evidence reviewed points to Lodi High. Confirm your exact address through Lodi Unified before relying on that assignment.

What should buyers know about Lodi Unified School District?

Lodi Unified serves Lodi and surrounding San Joaquin County communities including Acampo, Lockeford, Terminous, Victor, and Woodbridge. A widely cited district profile lists 7 high schools, 10 middle schools, and 38 elementary schools (Lodi Unified School District / Wikipedia).

The district itself currently describes Lodi Unified as having more than 50 school sites serving students from early childhood through adulthood. Its website is the better place to confirm individual campuses, enrollment information, and current attendance assignments.

What is Cabrillo Circle like for a homebuyer?

Cabrillo Circle sits in the Kristmont Acres pocket of west Lodi in ZIP code 95242. It is an established residential street where many properties are single story homes on mature lots. Many Cabrillo Circle homes are established single-story houses commonly built in the 1980s and 1990s; confirm the exact build year for any specific address with the county assessor or the MLS rather than assuming a construction era from a listing photo alone.

Some Cabrillo Circle properties back to a canal associated with the Woodbridge Irrigation District system. That can create a different backyard setting than an interior lot, while also giving buyers additional items to investigate such as fencing, easements, access, and property boundaries (local property listings / Woodbridge Irrigation District).

What might this look like for a real Cabrillo Circle buyer?

Scenario 1: You have a child entering elementary school. You find a single story home on Cabrillo Circle and an online listing shows Vinewood Elementary. Instead of assuming that settles it, you enter that exact house number into Lodi Unified's locator before making school plans.

Scenario 2: Your child is moving into seventh grade. You may be less concerned about the elementary school and much more interested in the middle school assignment. Current property sources consistently point to Millswood Middle for Cabrillo Circle addresses, but you still verify your specific property before writing an offer.

Scenario 3: You expected Tokay High because you associate it with west Lodi. Then the property information shows Lodi High instead. That is your signal to stop guessing and check the official locator, rather than basing your decision on general geography.

These are normal questions. School assignments can materially affect how a household thinks about location, transportation, daily routines, and how long a home will work for them.

How does Cabrillo Circle fit into the larger Lodi market?

Lodi had a population of about 68,600 in 2024. The 2024 American Community Survey reported a median value of approximately $517,600 for owner occupied homes in the city (U.S. Census Bureau, ACS 2024).

Those citywide numbers are useful for context, but Cabrillo Circle is too specific to evaluate from a city median alone. Buyers should compare individual homes based on lot position, size, condition, updates, street location, canal exposure when applicable, and recent nearby sales.

The same principle applies to homeowners considering a sale. If you own in the neighborhood and are trying to understand today's value, start with the 2026 Lodi home value and pricing guide, then narrow the analysis to the closest comparable homes.

What Common Mistakes Do Buyers Make About Cabrillo Circle Schools?

Mistake 1: Treating a real estate website as the final authority. Property websites are helpful research tools, but attendance boundaries come from the school district. Fix: Enter the exact property address into the Lodi Unified School Site Locator before relying on a school assignment.

Mistake 2: Assuming every 95242 address goes to the same schools. ZIP codes are postal areas, not school attendance boundaries. Two homes with the same ZIP code can have different assigned schools. Fix: Verify by street address, not ZIP code.

Mistake 3: Assuming Tokay High automatically serves every west Lodi neighborhood. Tokay is a major west Lodi high school, but current Cabrillo Circle property records point to Lodi High for the addresses reviewed. Fix: Check the district locator instead of relying on general location.

Mistake 4: Choosing a home based only on school ratings. A rating does not tell you everything about programs, campus culture, transportation, individual student needs, or whether the school is even assigned to the home. Fix: Confirm the school first, then research the school directly using district information and your family's priorities.

Mistake 5: Checking only the school your child needs today. A buyer with a fifth grader may focus only on elementary school and forget that middle school is coming soon. Fix: Check the current elementary, middle, and high school assignments for the address.
