School Reviews
5 11/14/2025
My child started kindergarten at Woodland during the pandemic. He struggled with the online format, as many children did. Over the years, with the high quality teachers and instruction there, he went from being on a Reading Improvement Plan in K/1st grade to scoring in the 86% on MAP reading tests and scoring in the advanced category on the M-step in Math. I''ve been very pleased with the district and the education my children have received.
