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.

My experience at Wooddale High High School was considered to be a fair experience. There was not a lot of diversity and the curriculum was not the best, but being there taught me something. It taught me to work harder to achieve my goals so that I can be the best at whatever I want to do. Of course, not a lot of people got to experience that, but I am glad that I did.

This school make sure the students are safe. While entering the school sometimes the students have to go through metal detectors. Safety plays a big part in high school. If anything goes wrong an administrator is running towards the problem to fix it
