Summary:
Woodland CCSD 50 district in Illinois has only one middle school, Woodland Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's performance has remained relatively consistent over the past three years, ranking around the 600th percentile among Illinois middle schools.
Woodland Middle School's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is generally below the state averages in English Language Arts (ELA), Math, and Science. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's ELA proficiency rate was 51.4% compared to the state average of 53.1%, and the Math proficiency rate was 28.7% compared to the state average of 38.5%. The school's Science proficiency rate for 8th grade in 2024-2025 was also below the state average at 40.2% versus 45.4%.
Despite the school's academic underperformance, Woodland CCSD 50 allocates significant resources to Woodland Middle School, with a relatively high spending per student of $20,847 and a low student-teacher ratio of 11.6 in the 2023-2024 school year. However, this resource allocation does not appear to be translating into higher academic achievement, suggesting a need for the district and school administration to evaluate their strategies and identify areas for improvement.
