I am now a Middle College student, but my home high school is Woodside, and I went there for my freshman and sophomore years. My experience there was good. I had good teachers, mostly, and my friends made the experience valuable.

My favorite part about Woodside are the teachers there. Almost every single teacher I've had truly cared about my learning and was consistently willing to help me fulfill my educational goals.

6/14/2024

I loved some of the teachers but some of them weren't the greatest at their job and were pretty unfair. Overall the school is pretty good but its the only one in the district without an open campus so all the students try to leave at lunch and end up getting in trouble if they get caught which is annoying

I'm a sports coach at WHS. Admittedly, I only come across a small slice of the students compared to a teacher or administrator.However, in the years I've been there, I've been able to pick up a reasonably positive vibe in not only the students I coach, but also in overheard snippets of student-to-st...
