Summary

Woodbury Elementary is a large, high-performing K-6 public school serving 1,095 students in the highly-regarded Irvine Unified School District, consistently ranking in the top 10% of California elementary schools.

While Woodbury achieves strong academic results, it operates quite differently than many nearby schools: it's the largest in the immediate area and has a higher student-teacher ratio (30.5:1) than schools like Brywood Elementary or Irvine International Academy, yet it spends less per student. This efficiency is notable, as the school maintains excellent outcomes, particularly in supporting English Language Learners and students with special needs, where it ranks exceptionally high statewide. The school also boasts a very low chronic absenteeism rate (5.6%), on par with top-tier schools like Santiago Hills Elementary and Stonegate Elementary.

Within the high-achieving Irvine district, Woodbury sits in the middle tier of performance compared to its neighbors, offering remarkable consistency and stability over the past decade. Parents may note interesting variations, such as particularly strong math scores in 3rd grade and a notable performance gap between female and male students. Compared to charter options like the Irvine Chinese Immersion Academy, Woodbury represents a traditional public school model that delivers reliable quality with specific strengths in fostering a supportive environment for all learners.
