Summary

Woodrow Wilson Middle School serves 860 students in grades 6–8 in Moline, Illinois, and stands out locally for its large enrollment and high student-teacher ratio. In 2025–2026, its results were mixed: ELA was a relative strength, while math was the clearest concern. Just 26% of students were proficient in math, compared with 40% statewide—a gap of 14 percentage points—making math the most important area where results lag.

ELA was stronger than math but still below state and nearby-school results: 49% of students were proficient, compared with 56% statewide and a 60% average among nearby schools serving grades 6–8. It was 5 points above the Moline-Coal Valley CUSD 40 district in ELA, but 5 points below it in math. In eighth-grade science, 44% were proficient—6 points above the district, 8 points below the state, and 2 points below the nearby-school average. Among the six nearby schools serving grades 6–8, Woodrow ranked third-lowest in both ELA and math, ahead of John Deere Middle School and Northeast Junior High School.

Results have improved over time, especially in ELA: proficiency rose 24 percentage points from 2023–2024 to 2025–2026, while math rose 13 points; however, math’s gap to the state narrowed by just 2 points across that period. SchoolDigger ranked Woodrow at the 24th percentile with 1 star in 2025–2026, down from the 40th percentile and 2 stars the year before, despite the proficiency gains. Context includes a student-teacher ratio of 16.5 in 2024–2025, the highest among nine nearby schools, and 63% of students eligible for free/reduced lunch in 2024–2025. One notable subgroup result: SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for English Language Learner Students rose from the 5th percentile in 2022–2023 to the 51st in 2024–2025, a 46-point increase; no later subgroup figure is provided.
