GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Woodrow is a great high school but I didn't enjoy my 4 years. There was always fights and threats to the school such as gun violence and more.

I like most things about Woodrow Wilson high school and It is a positive environment and everyone strives to be there best but what I don't like is how we can't wear a hoodie especially when its freezing outside and the food is not good.

Woodrow is a fantastic HS with a very unique blend of students. Not only do kids get great education, have dedicated, enthusiastic teachers, and a great administration, they also learn about life. All students are welcomed, accepted and encouraged to achieve. I highly recommend this school.
