Woodland Elementary has consistently ranked in the top 25% of North Carolina elementary schools, earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school has demonstrated strong academic performance, with a higher percentage of students proficient or better in EOG (End-of-Grade) assessments compared to the Person County Schools district and the state of North Carolina averages. In 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 51.5% to 78.8% in mathematics and 51.5% to 66.7% in reading, outperforming the district and state in most grade levels.

Despite the high percentage of students (98.74%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage, Woodland Elementary has an above-average spending per student of $11,497 and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.9 to 1. These factors suggest the district is effectively allocating resources to support the educational needs of the students at Woodland Elementary. While the school's academic performance is strong, there may be opportunities for further improvement, particularly in reading proficiency, where the school's performance is closer to the district and state averages.
