Better than 15% of California elementary schools

Summary

Woodland Prairie Elementary is a large K-6 public school in the Woodland Joint Unified district, serving 713 students in a community with high economic need, where over 83% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, the school faces significant challenges, with test scores in English, math, and science well below both district and state averages, placing it in the bottom 15% of all California elementary schools. This performance is notably lower than several nearby schools, such as Spring Lake Elementary and Zamora Elementary. However, the school shows a key strength in its Special Education program, which performs near the state average and is a relative bright spot. There are also wide swings in performance between different grade levels, suggesting some classrooms or grades are having more success than others.

While chronic absenteeism is a concern, Woodland Prairie's rate is actually better than other district schools with similar student populations, like T. L. Whitehead Elementary and Freeman Elementary. The school spends more per student than many higher-performing schools in the area, raising questions about how those resources are used. Overall, the school serves a high-needs community within a district where school performance varies dramatically, and it is working to address deep academic gaps while building on its effective support for students with special needs.
