Wood Memorial Intermediate School's academic performance is generally below the state averages in English Language Arts, Math, and Science, as well as below the district average in most subject areas and grade levels. The school's highest performance is in 4th grade Math, where it exceeds the state average by 6.94 percentage points in 2024-2025. However, the school has a concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% in the 2023-2024 school year, and a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at 66.21%.
Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.7 and high per-student spending of $12,833 in the 2023-2024 school year, the data suggests that Wood Memorial Intermediate School is facing significant challenges in terms of academic performance, chronic absenteeism, and socioeconomic factors. Targeted interventions and support may be necessary to improve student outcomes and the school's standing within the district and state.
