Summary:
The Woden Independent School District (Isd) in Texas serves 885 students across three schools: Woden Elementary (PK-5), Woden J H (6-8), and Woden High School (9-12). The district ranks in the 76th percentile statewide, earning a 4-star rating, but performance varies significantly between its elementary and secondary schools.
Woden High School is the district's standout, ranking in the 80th percentile with a near-perfect 98.1% graduation rate and a 0.0% dropout rate. It excels in humanities, with 71.74% of students proficient in English II Reading and 83.05% in U.S. History—both well above state averages. Woden J H is a consistent 4-star performer, ranking in the 79th percentile, and shines in math: 77.14% of 8th graders are proficient compared to the state's 44.81%. In contrast, Woden Elementary has historically struggled, earning a 2-star rating as recently as 2023-2024, though it has shown strong improvement, jumping from the 36th to the 61st percentile. Its 3rd-grade math and reading scores now exceed state averages, but 5th-grade math proficiency drops to 42.47%.
A key takeaway is the district's resource allocation: Woden High School spends the most per student ($12,930) and has the smallest class sizes (9.9:1), while Woden J H achieves excellent results with the lowest spending ($9,258). The district serves a significant economically disadvantaged population (average 62.2% free/reduced lunch), yet secondary schools consistently outperform state averages, suggesting effective interventions and strong school culture. For parents, this means the district offers a strong academic foundation for older students, while the elementary school is on a promising upward trajectory.
