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.

The principal is nice but he needs to take command of his school, over his staff. There are bullies in this school and they are STAFF!!

The new principal is trying but he can only do so much when working in a school district that just doesn't have the funds, or parent involvement it should. It's a shame... glad to have left the district!

Woodlawn has fallen well below what it used to be. While we still have some great teachers, many more do barely enough to scrape by. Bullying has become a huge issue, not only by the students, but by staff as well. Its definately not the beautiful field of flowers described by the other posts.... ho...
