Summary

Woodland Elementary School in Kingsford, MI, is a large K-4 school within the Breitung Township School District, serving 771 students and earning a consistent 4-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past decade.

Woodland stands out for its exceptional math performance. In the most recent school year, 4th-grade math proficiency hit 68%, which is nearly 29 percentage points above the state average and far exceeds the 43.5% rate at the nearby North Elementary School. English Language Arts scores are also strong, with both 3rd and 4th graders outperforming state averages by roughly 9 points. Perhaps most impressive is the school's success with students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds—Woodland ranks in the 88th percentile statewide for effectiveness with low-income students, despite nearly half of its student body qualifying for free or reduced lunch. The school also keeps chronic absenteeism low at just 14%, compared to the state average of nearly 28%, signaling a supportive and engaging environment.

When compared to nearby schools, Woodland holds its own but isn't the top performer in the region. NorwayVulcan Elementary School, about 10 miles away, posts even higher scores, including 84.9% 4th-grade math proficiency and a remarkably low 7.2% chronic absenteeism rate. Meanwhile, North Elementary School in Iron Mountain faces greater challenges with higher poverty rates and larger class sizes. One area where Woodland shows room for growth is special education services, where its ranking has slipped to the 33rd percentile. Additionally, while still above state averages, test scores have shown a gradual decline over the past four years—3rd-grade ELA dropped from 64.7% to 47%—which is worth monitoring. Overall, Woodland offers strong academics, particularly in math, and does an excellent job supporting its diverse student population.
