Summary

Woodville School in Tallahassee, FL, is a public Pre-K through 8th grade school serving 462 students in the southern part of the city, and it is part of the Leon County School District.

The most significant challenge facing Woodville School is an extremely high chronic absenteeism rate of 45.1% for the 2023-2024 school year, meaning nearly half of all students miss 10% or more of the school year. This rate is dramatically higher than nearby schools like J Michael Conley Elementary School At Southwood (21.3%) and the high-performing Riversink Elementary School (22.1%) in the Wakulla district. This attendance crisis is closely tied to the school's overall academic decline, with its state ranking dropping from the 58th percentile in 2015-2016 to the 15th percentile in 2025-2026. While the school spends a relatively high amount per student ($14,215), which is more than many peers, this funding has not yet translated into improved outcomes, likely because addressing the root causes of absenteeism is a necessary first step.

Despite these challenges, there are notable bright spots. Woodville School has an exceptional Algebra 1 program, with 92% of its 8th graders scoring proficient on the End-of-Course exam in recent years—a rate over 30 percentage points higher than district and state averages. Additionally, the school shows a "middle school bump," where performance in grades 6-8 often meets or exceeds district averages, particularly in English Language Arts, while elementary grades (3-5) consistently lag behind. This unique PK-8 structure offers continuity for students, and the strong middle school math program suggests that the school has effective teachers and supports for older students, even as it works to overcome its attendance and elementary performance challenges.
