Woodrow Wilson was an overall underwhelming experience. The teachers and staff are often difficult to talk to. They take weeks to answer a simple question and sometimes they don't even get back to you. The counselors don't really try to help students beyond asking them what their future plans are.

The teachers really cared about the students. They created a family type atmosphere. I went there for 3 years and did pretty well. I am a military kid and found that this school was better than any school that I attended previously.

Woodrow Wilson is an average school. Some of the staff are amazing teachers, while others are not. However, I believe that once we go to school in person again it will be much better.

The school is what you make of it. My children graduated from Wilson. My son did not work to the best of his ability and had to repeat 12th grade English. Ironically, that English teacher remains one of his most favorites and second time around, he committed to learn. My daughter are over achievers....
