What This Lodi Board of Education Guide Covers

Calendar intent

Lodi School District Calendar, 25-26 Student Calendar and 26-27 Student Calendar

The official District Calendar is best for live events, board meeting entries and school activity dates. The student calendar pages are better for school-year planning such as first day, half-day sessions, schools closed dates, holidays, inservice days and last-day planning.

If you searched “Lodi school calendar 2026,” “Lodi NJ student calendar,” “Lodi Board of Education calendar,” or “Lodi schools closed,” use the correct school year first. Do not plan from an old screenshot because calendars can be altered by board action, weather, emergency closings or revised notices.

Meetings

Lodi Board of Education Meeting Schedule, Public Session and Location

The official Board of Education page says meetings are held at Lodi High School, 99 Putnam Street. The page states meetings commence at 6:30 p.m. and immediately go into Executive Session from 6:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., with the public portion commencing at 7:00 p.m.

The district says changes to listed meeting dates will be made with required 48-hour public notice, and special meetings will also be held with required 48-hour public notice. That means the meeting schedule page is useful, but the current public notice and agenda should still be checked before attending.

1

Check the official BOE page

Start with the district BOE page for trustees, meeting schedule, livestream, agenda and minutes links.

2

Confirm location and time

Use the current notice. The standard page lists Lodi High School, 99 Putnam Street, with public portion at 7:00 p.m., unless changed.

3

Open agenda before the meeting

4

Check minutes after approval

Lodi BOE Meeting Agendas, Minutes and Meeting Record Checklist

Agendas and minutes are separate. The agenda helps before the meeting. Minutes help after the meeting. A livestream helps with context, but it is not the same as the official approved minutes.
