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.

People who don't contribute to my school would say don't change anything, but I say there can be multiple changes made. I would like to see the staff improve, the students enjoy learning, and everyone in our environment to stay positive and think ahead. Everyone would have a great time if people would stop worrying about the wrong things during school. It's important for us future doctors, lawyers, teachers, engineers, etc. to get our education. We can develop the United States to something better than what it is.

I have really enjoyed being at Woodland Hills. We have a wide range of AP classes, elective classes, sports, and extra curriculars. Honestly the only draw back for me has been that the administration has not always been great. It has so many ups and downs and they try to impose odd strict rules in favor of making the school looking better than the students. Overall i have loved it here but I have had some arguments about things here.

Woodland Hills High School is an amazing school with plenty of opportunities for everyone. During my time there, I developed so much as a person and became the motivated and self-sufficient person I am today.

this school is terrible and not up to date with other high schools, another thing about this high school is that teachers simply don't care at all and don't even try to offer help. The Office doesn't return calls nor emails and is always proclaimed as busy. The students in there don't even care abou...
