Summary:
Zip code 35776 in Woodville, Alabama, is served by a single school, Woodville High School, an alternative school within the Jackson County district that enrolls 504 students across grades PK-12.
For parents, the most striking feature of Woodville High School is its perfect 100% graduation rate for 2024-2025, which far exceeds the district's 96.5% and the state's 91.5% averages. This is especially notable given its alternative school designation, which typically serves students who need flexible pathways to completion. The school also shows genuine academic strengths, particularly in science, where 11th graders scored 40.63% proficient—above both the district (33.76%) and state (36.17%)—and 4th graders reached 55.26% proficiency, beating the state's 50.23%. English performance is solid in several grades, with 7th graders at 65.63% proficiency versus the state's 55.25%. However, math remains a significant challenge, especially in 7th grade where only 9.38% of students are proficient compared to the state's 24.46%, and in 11th grade at 15.63% versus 27.21% statewide. Early elementary reading also lags, with 3rd grade English at 47.83% against the state's 64.75%.
Encouragingly, the school is showing strong momentum. From 2024-2025 to 2025-2026, 11th grade math proficiency more than doubled from 7.14% to 15.63%, while 11th grade science nearly tripled from 14.29% to 40.63%. Chronic absenteeism is a concern at 16.4%, higher than the district's 12.7% and state's 12.0%, and with 59.52% of students receiving free or reduced lunch, the school serves a predominantly low-income population. The student-teacher ratio of 19.3:1 is relatively high, and per-student spending of $9,765 is modest given the school's broad PK-12 mission. Despite these challenges, the school's ability to exceed state averages in multiple subjects while achieving a perfect graduation rate makes it a noteworthy option for families seeking a small, supportive environment that prioritizes student success.
