Summary

Woodrow Wilson School in Wyandotte, MI, is a middle school serving 869 students in grades 6 through 8 within the Wyandotte School District of the City of, and it has shown steady improvement in recent years, climbing from the 29th percentile statewide in 2021-2022 to the 46th percentile in 2025-2026.

For parents, the most encouraging news is that Woodrow Wilson is on an upward trajectory. The school's overall state rank improved from 614th to 486th out of nearly 900 schools, and it now holds a 2-star rating. This progress is backed by several specific strengths. For instance, 8th graders posted a 51% proficiency rate in Social Studies, which is above the state average and competitive with nearby schools like Seitz Middle School (40.2%). The school also shows resilience in English Language Arts, with 8th-grade PSAT ELA scores (66.4%) exceeding the state average (64.8%). Additionally, chronic absenteeism has dropped dramatically from a post-pandemic high of 47.8% to 26.8%, which is now below the state average and far better than some neighboring schools like CB Sabbath 68 Preparatory Academy (73.8%) or Grandport Academy (66.8%).

However, there are clear areas of challenge. Math proficiency lags significantly behind state averages—for example, only 16.7% of 6th graders and 23.6% of 7th graders were proficient in 2025-2026, compared to state averages of 31.9% and 33.3%. This is a persistent gap that contrasts with the school's near-average ELA performance. It's also worth noting that Woodrow Wilson achieves these results while spending $16,130 per student, which is less than many nearby schools such as Stout Middle School ($22,556) or Robert J West Middle School ($20,017), yet it outperforms those schools in overall state ranking. In the broader landscape, Woodrow Wilson sits as a stable mid-tier option—outperformed by Allen Park Middle School (67th percentile) but significantly ahead of schools in neighboring higher-poverty districts like Lincoln Park Middle School (21st percentile). For families seeking a school with positive momentum and efficient use of resources, Woodrow Wilson is worth a closer look.
