Summary

Woodrow Wilson Senior High is a large public high school serving about 1,260 students in grades 9-12 within the Los Angeles Unified school district, located in a high-need area where the vast majority of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

The school is on a strong upward trend, improving its statewide ranking from the 40th to the 63rd percentile in recent years, and it excels at getting students to graduation with a rate of 95.8%—one of the highest in the area and better than both the district and state. This success is especially notable given the economic challenges many students face, and the school shows particular effectiveness in supporting Hispanic students, students from low-income families, and those in special education. However, parents should be aware of a significant challenge with chronic student absenteeism and a wide gap in academic performance, where students do very well in English but struggle considerably in math compared to nearby schools like Francisco Bravo Medical Magnet High and Abraham Lincoln Senior High.

Compared to other local options, Wilson stands out for its consistent improvement and effective support systems, operating in a competitive landscape that includes selective magnet and charter schools. The school also benefits from the highest per-student spending among the compared schools, which appears to be contributing to positive outcomes. While there are areas for growth, particularly in math and attendance, Woodrow Wilson Senior High demonstrates a successful model of steady progress and strong graduation results within its community context.
